Subject: [PATCH 4/7] sfc: QT2025C: Use hard reset only
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 19:17:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1251310639.27345.15.camel@achroite> (raw)

At probe time, falcon_reset_hw() performs a hard reset of the PHY
along with Falcon.  There is no need to perform a soft reset later,
and any access to standard MDIO registers before the PHY firmware has
booted can interrupt the boot process, making the port unusable.
