The datasheet refers to those mode as 1BR-100 so it seems to make sense 
to define them the same way here.

As far as I could glean, they are supposed to be:

https://www.electronicdesign.com/markets/automotive/article/21806576/whats-the-difference-between-broadr-reach-and-100base-t1

Given that part, it makes me wonder if it would not be less confusing to 
map the existing T1 link modes onto what the BCM54811 PHY supports, 
Kamil, what do you think?
