Subject: [PATCH net-2.6] tg3: Fix phylib locking strategy

Felix, can you verify this solves your problem?

---

Felix Radensky noted that chip resets were generating stack trace dumps.
This is because the driver is attempting to acquire the mdio bus mutex
while holding the tp->lock spinlock.  The fix is to change the code such
that every phy access takes the tp->lock spinlock instead.
