This is still wrong - phy_restore_page() can fail to retore the page.

It's rather unfortunate that you need to return a u32, where the
high values become negative ints, which means you can't use
phy_restore_page() as it's supposed to be used.

If you fail to read from the PHY, is returning zero acceptable?

I think what you should be doing at the very least is:

rc = phy_select_page(phydev, MSCC_PHY_PAGE_MACSEC);
if (rc < 0)
goto failed;

rc = __phy_write(phydev, MSCC_EXT_PAGE_MACSEC_20, ...);
if (rc < 0)
goto failed;

...

rc = __phy_write(phydev, MSCC_EXT_PAGE_MACSEC_19, ...);
if (rc < 0)
goto failed;

...
do {
val = __phy_read(phydev, MSCC_EXT_PAGE_MACSEC_19);
if (val < 0) {
rc = val;
goto failed;
}
} while (...);

val_l = __phy_read(phydev, MSCC_EXT_PAGE_MACSEC_17);
if (val_l < 0) {
rc = val_l;
goto failed;
}

val_h = __phy_read(phydev, MSCC_EXT_PAGE_MACSEC_18);
if (val_h < 0)
rc = val_h;

failed:
rc = phy_restore_page(phgydev, rc, 0);

return rc < 0 ? 0 : val_h << 16 | val_l;

Which means that if any of the PHY IO functions fail at any point, this
returns zero.
