Sorry for that confusion. I just checked the 9261 data sheet and
to my surprise the 9261 does not have a MACB or any other LAN
interface on the SoC!

It seems that the 9261-ek and derivatives use an external LAN chip,
DM9000.

That chip's initialisation, of course, does not belong into the 9261 SoC
code.

So it must stay in the board code.

Best Regards,
Reinhard
