Hi Sebastian

First off, i tend to agree with Florian. I'm not sure how reliable
this is. There is normally a state machine moving the PHY between
different states. But in order to do that, i think you need a netdev.
Have you tried multiple down/up of the other MAC/PHY? Does it always
work?

But, at the moment, we don't have much better.

What i don't like is having this code inside
dsa_port_fixed_link_register_of(). This has nothing to do with a fixed
link. Please export functions from port.c and call them directly from
dsa_port_setup() and dsa_port_teardown().

	 Andrew
