Re: [net] net: phy: micrel: set soft_reset callback to genphy_soft_reset, for KSZ9031

So far genphy_soft_reset was used automatically if the PHY driver
didn't implement the soft_reset callback. This changed with the
mentioned commit and broke KSZ9031. To fix this configure the
KSZ9031 PHY driver to use genphy_soft_reset.

Florian Fainelli, I have had this same issue with the KSZ8081 phy, but 
was able to solve it with the same change.

I think the root of this problem is related to the phy's interaction 
with the cpu on the mii bus.

I have a board with this phy and an IMX6ULL cpu that requires this 
change to function normally.

I also have a board with this phy and a IMX253 cpu, however it does not 
require this change to function normally. On this board the phy is 
clocked differently.

Here is a patch which solves the problem for me.

Thanks, Andrew

Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: micrel: set soft_reset callback to
  genphy_soft_reset for KSZ8081

A KSZ8081 phy taking 50mhz clock in from a IMX6ULL appears to require 
the soft
reset run in drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c:phy_init_hw to function normally.

This can be fixed by configuring the phy driver to use genphy_soft_reset,
simillarly to commit: 1d16073a3268
