Hm, how about just calling phy_init_hw()? That will perform a
->soft_reset() and also restore the configuration, including
interrupts (which the above does not, but I guess that's
irrelevant as long as the driver uses polling).
Does phy_init_hw() do too much or too little compared to the above
and is hence not a viable solution?
Thanks,
Lukas
