Can you make a diagram as to where which PHY etc is connected?
I would also advise using mdio-tools to make it easy to test from userspace.
I dont think that RTL9301 is supported in OpenWrt at all.
My current understanding is below. And RTL930x seems to be supported?

It's supported as standalone switch under the Realtek target, though I am not sure if it actually works at all.
The way that the RTL DSA driver currently is, it won't work at all outside of it being used as a standalone switch.
And without the RTL switch, you basically have one port working.
Have you tried loading the AQR FW from userspace?
Re: RTL. That's bad news 
Re: AQR: 1. I didn't find good instructions on how to do that. + Current initramfs image has no network at all. Any instructions would be helpful.
The AQR113 firmware seems to be loaded from the userspace, here's /lib/debug/aqr113c/arc_phyupgrade.sh, it's called from an init script:

I've seen that. but it look like a permanent flash upgrade to me, not happening on every boot, right?
No, seems to be happening on every boot, see S11aqr113c_init.

[AQR113C] LAN PHY FW is newer or equal to latest version, skip load phy fw
[AQR113C] MDIO load LAN PHY Firmware Finish
That's exactly my question: it is doing nothing basically (as firmware is already there) and the AQR still works, right?
way earlier it says
[ 27.631069] aquantia_phy_api_ops_init[2187]:INFO:qca probe aquantia phy driver succeeded!
but my build doesn't have that
You're absolutely correct, I looked around U-boot and found something related to AQ:
There's some indirection happening, so I wasn't able to quickly determine how these functions are used.
Can you try calling
aq_load_fw and/or aq_phy_restart in U-boot before you jump to your custom initramfs?
I tried it here: Adding Support for Verizon CR1000A - #307 by a_guy
Looks like it needs a firmware written to a specific partition but this router have some noise (or rtl9301 firmware?) there. Current (untested, destructive) step is to overwrite it with AQR firmware and see if it works.
However I still don't understand how the tftp works in uboot (via wan port) ? Meaning the firmware is already loaded by it? From where?
Ah, I see, I missed that post. Well I looked around bootipq inside U-Boot, and I really can't find anything special about beyond the TestMode stuff we already know, seems like it's mostly Qualcomm U-Boot:
All references to ETHPHYFW go through ipq_board_fw_download, which is the same function that's run during aq_load_fw.
The firmware for tftp is loaded through eth_initialize function (I think), it's using the same ETHPHYFW partition and ipq_board_fw_download function.
The aquantia firmware needs to load after every powercycle (it's just loading the firmware to the PHY memory at runtime, this is not persistent) don't mix this up with a persistent firmware flashing to NAND or eMMC.
You can use aq-fw-dwonload utility to load the firmware from userspace.

Ok, as a side note to @meisterlone : seems like there is a way to load unsigned image directly from mmc, and the bootm hack is not needed?
@spol-eff
Does 'bootm' do the same things like bootipq does: 'aqr reset' first and eth_initialize at the end?
bootm isn't doing any network init as far as I can see, nor there are any deviations from the qualcomm u-boot. eth_init seems to be called as part of tftpboot.
Another thing I've noticed is that bootipq initializes the network only if the image boot failed, and you can see that in the bootlogs in this thread: notice that EDMA ver 1 hw init ... stuff is only present when bootipq couldn't load the kernel.
This all suggests that the netowrk init indeed happens from userspace somehow.
RTL9301 on CR1000A seems to be connected via SPI for register config, might it be possible to extend the existing driver to use SPI instead of memory mapping?
Re AQR is not initializing: did some digging: seems like this code from aquantia_phy.c is never gets called
int aquantia_phy_init(a_uint32_t dev_id, a_uint32_t port_bmp)
{
static a_uint32_t phy_ops_flag = 0;
if(phy_ops_flag == 0) {
aquantia_phy_api_ops_init();
phy_ops_flag = 1;
}
aquantia_phy_hw_init(dev_id, port_bmp);
return 0;
}
the suspect is this: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/12014
which makes it a module which gets loaded way later than expected creating a race condition?
it gets loaded like this
root@OpenWrt:/# dmesg | grep kmodloader
[ 3.078711] kmodloader: loading kernel modules from /etc/modules-boot.d/*
[ 4.543108] kmodloader: done loading kernel modules from /etc/modules-boot.d/*
...
while 'normal' init is expected to happen somewhere way earlier before this
[ 3.292638] regi_init[3953]:INFO:Initializing HPPE!!
[ 3.530048] ssdk_ppe_reset_init[1535]:INFO:ppe reset successfully!
[ 3.533647] qca_hppe_portctrl_hw_init[126]:INFO:Hawkeye PPE port initializing
for example here (https://openwrt.org/toh/qnap/301w) note that relative times are different but the order is still the same)
Have you installed mdio-tools?
AQR could be left in reset by the bootloader, its a common thing to do.
AQR kmod is getting loaded really early so it's not a race condition, its 99% it's not being matched as it's not present on the MDIO bus
