I don't know if that's ok! The datasheet just says:
Once this bit is cleared software must wait at least 3 PHY clocks before
doing any access to the PHY domain.
Software must also check that bit 31 of this register is 1 (AHB Master is
IDLE) before starting any operation.

But it doesn't say how long to wait. I don't know if it can sleep for a
while and then check the register's value.
In fact, sometimes the AHB Master will be IDLE quickly(even only need read
once), but sometimes may need
Much more time. To reduce the risk, keeping it in original way may be
better.

Thanks!
