The bcmgenet_mii_reset() is always not running in power up sequence
after 'commit 62469c76007e ("net: ethernet: bcmgenet: use phydev from
struct net_device")'. This'll show extremely high latency and duplicate
packets while interface down and up repeatedly.
For now, adds again a private phydev for mii reset when runs power up to
open interface.
Hi Jaedon
How does this fix the issue? It sounds like you are papering over the
crack, not truly fixing it.

Yes, It feel like a workaround, but I think it must need v4.8 stable
version. If we find better way that fixes internal PHY to initialize
after re-open interface, this patch will be dropped.
