phylink_set_max_fixed_link() already excludes itself:

        if (pl->cfg_link_an_mode != MLO_AN_PHY || pl->phydev || pl->sfp_bus)
                return -EBUSY;

intentionally so that if there is anything specified for the port, be
that a fixed link or in-band, then phylink_set_max_fixed_link() errors
out with -EBUSY.

The only case that it can't detect is if there is a PHY that may be
added to phylink at a later time, and that is what the check above
is for.
