DP83867IR: Power sequence in case of two-supply mode

Hi all

Would you mind if we ask DP83867IR?

There is the description "There is no requirement for the sequence of the supplies when operating in two-supply mode." on the datasheet P114.
Our customer will use DP83867IR with follows power sequence.
Is it no problem?

<Patern 1>
RGMII I/F start(MCU on) ->Xsec(time lag, margin approx 2sec)-> 2.5V, 1.1V on -> 1.8V(Phy internal) on 

<Paturn2>
1.1V on, RGMII I/F start(MCU on) -> Xsec(time lag, margin approx 2sec) -> 2.5V on ->1.8V(Phy internal) on 

We thinlk that both case is NG, because absolute maximum rating of MAC I/F are –0.3 VDDIO + 0.3.
So, both case are beyond absolute maximum rating.

Kind regards,
