Subject: [PATCH 5.7 040/265] r8169: fix firmware not resetting tp->ocp_base

From: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 89fbd26cca7ec9e82ec4787a4b6e95939b57d073 ]

Typically the firmware takes care that tp->ocp_base is reset to its
default value. That's not the case (at least) for RTL8117.
As a result subsequent PHY access reads/writes the wrong page and
the link is broken. Fix this be resetting tp->ocp_base explicitly.

Fixes: 229c1e0dfd3d ("r8169: load firmware for RTL8168fp/RTL8117")
