Anyway, since the SGMII reset is required, instead of reverting the patch in full

I have never seen the original problem that you noticed.  When I use the 
generic phy driver instead of the at803x driver, everything works great 
for me.  Perhaps the problem that you noticed only occurs with the 
Gianfar NIC?

Anyway, I tested the change you suggested, and it fixes the problem for 
me.  I moved the power-down code to before the power-up code.  But like 
I said, since I never experienced the original problem, I don't know if 
that works for you.

I suggest you make the changes in the driver yourself and test it, and 
then I will test whether that patch also works for me.
