Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] net: phy: DP83640: Explicitly disabling PHY Control Frames

The PHY offers a PHY control frame feature that allows to access PHY
registers through the MAC transmit data interface. This functionality
is not handled by the driver but can be enabled via hardware strap or
register access.

Disable the feature in config_init() to save some latency on MII packets.
