This fixup removes the Lpi_en bit.

If this patch breaks functionality of your board, use following device
tree properties:

	ethernet-phy@X {
		reg = <0xX>;
		eee-broken-1000t;
		eee-broken-100tx;
		....
	};
That is the historical fix for this problem, but there is a better
solution now in net-next - configuring the Tw parameter for gigabit
connections. That solves the random link drop issue when EEE is
enabled.

Support for this configuration has only recently been merged into
net-next and other trees for this merge window, so I ask that you
hold off at least this patch until the next cycle.
