[PATCH] net-next: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: ensure the EPHY is properly reseted

[PATCH] net-next: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: ensure the EPHY is properly reseted

[Icenowy Zheng]

The EPHY may be already enabled by bootloaders which have Ethernet
capability (e.g. current U-Boot). Thus it should be reseted properly
before doing the enabling sequence in the dwmac-sun8i driver, otherwise
the EMAC reset process may fail if no cable is plugged, and then fail
the dwmac-sun8i probing.

Tested on Orange Pi PC, One and Zero. All the boards fail to have
dwmac-sun8i probed with "EMAC reset timeout" without cable plugged
before, and with this fix they're now all able to successfully probe the
EMAC without cable plugged and then use the connection after a cable is
hot-plugged in.

Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst says:

If a person was not directly involved in the preparation or handling of a
patch but wishes to signify and record their approval of it then they can
ask to have an Acked-by: line added to the patch's changelog.

Acked-by: is not as formal as Signed-off-by:.  It is a record that the acker
has at least reviewed the patch and has indicated acceptance.

Nothing limits who can give an Acked-by, you just need to of done the
necessary work.

Reviewed-by: is similar.

So feel free to have either.
