The at803x family of devices are subjected to an errata that requires hard-reseting the PHY upon link change. That can only work if there's a physical reset line wired to the PHY, which the driver checks by looking if there's a reset GPIO configured for the MDIO device. The reset may however be controlled through a reset controller, which isn't accounted for in the errata handling. Besides that, PHY drivers aren't expected to directly access the mdiodev's resources directly, let's therefore wrap this with a phylib helper, that uses a similar mdio helper to check for reset existence. This was found in preparation for bus-level resource management for better mdio scan support.
