This has the side effect that nothing clears the port reset bit in the
GMAC, which means there's no hope of the interface working - with the
reset bit set, the port is well and truely held in "link down" state.

In any case, the GMAC part is much the same as mvneta, and I think
that code should be shared rather than writing new versions of it.
There are some subtle differences between neta, pp2.1 and pp2.2, but
it's entirely doable (I have an implementation here as I wasn't going
to duplicate this code for my phylink conversion.)
