Hi Damiano,

Can you try revert the following patch and retest on your board?

commit a058052c358c3ecf5f394ff37def6a45eb26768c

    net: phy: do not read configuration register on reset
        
    When doing a software reset, the reset flag should be written without
    other bits set. Writing the current state will lead to restoring the
    state of the PHY (e.g. Powerdown), which is not what is expected from
    a software reset.

This patch breaks ethernet function of i.MX6 Quad Sabresd/Quad Sabreauto.
Not sure whether reverting this patch can help in your case or not. Please
try.

Thanks,
Peng.
