From 0878fff1f42c18e448ab5b8b4f6a3eb32365b5b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Fainelli Date: Sun, 5 Mar 2017 12:34:49 -0800 Subject: net: phy: Do not perform software reset for Generic PHY The Generic PHY driver is a catch-all PHY driver and it should preserve whatever prior initialization has been done by boot loader or firmware agents. For specific PHY device configuration it is expected that a specialized PHY driver would take over that role. Resetting the generic PHY was a bad idea that has lead to several complaints and downstream workarounds e.g: in OpenWrt/LEDE so restore the behavior prior to 87aa9f9c61ad ("net: phy: consolidate PHY reset in phy_init_hw()").
