Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net/phy: micrel: Center FLP timing at 16ms

Link failures have been observed when using the KSZ9031 with HP 1810-8G
and HP 1910-8G network switches. Center the FLP timing at 16ms to help
avoid intermittent link failures.

>From the KSZ9031RNX and KSZ9031MNX data sheets revision 2.2, section
"Auto-Negotiation Timing":
	The KSZ9031[RNX or MNX] Fast Link Pulse (FLP) burst-to-burst
	transmit timing for Auto-Negotiation defaults to 8ms. IEEE 802.3
	Standard specifies this timing to be 16ms +/-8ms. Some PHY link
	partners need to receive the FLP with 16ms centered timing;
	otherwise, there can be intermittent link failures and long
	link-up times.

	After KSZ9031[RNX or MNX] power-up/reset, program the following
	register sequence to set the FLP timing to 16ms

	Write Register Dh = 0x0000 // Set up register address for MMD – Device Address 0h
	Write Register Eh = 0x0004 // Select Register 4h of MMD – Device Address 0h
	Write Register Dh = 0x4000 // Select register data for MMD – Device Address 0h, Register 4h
	Write Register Eh = 0x0006 // Write value 0x0006 to MMD – Device Address 0h, Register 4h
	Write Register Dh = 0x0000 // Set up register address for MMD – Device Address 0h
	Write Register Eh = 0x0003 // Select Register 3h of MMD – Device Address 0h
	Write Register Dh = 0x4000 // Select register data for MMD – Device Address 0h, Register 3h
	Write Register Eh = 0x1A80 // Write value 0x1A80 to MMD – Device Address 0h, Register 3h
	Write Register 0h, Bit [9] = 1 // Restart Auto-Negotiation
