Subject: [PATCH v3] dp83640: Ensure against premature access to PHY registers after reset

From: Esben Haabendal <eha@...f.com>

The datasheet specifies a 3uS pause after performing a software
reset. The default implementation of genphy_soft_reset() does not
provide this, so implement soft_reset with the needed pause.
