Hi Yan

Experience has shown that very few PHYs have controllable resets. So i
would not say every.

Please look at your white space in both the commit message and the
patch. No space before , but after. Spaces between words etc. More
blank lines are common in code to break up logical sections etc.

"While in resetting, scanning of the PHY ID will fail. So deassert the
reset for the chip to ensure normal operation."

What you are missing is a delay afterwards. Look at the DT binding, it
lists optional properties to control the delay. And if there is no
delay specified, the code which will later take the GPIO inserts a
delay.

These includes appear to be sorted.

Please correctly handle -EPROBE_DEFFER. The GPIO driver might not of
probed yet. The gpio maintainers are also trying to remove the gpio_
API and replace it with gpiod_.

This is actually putting it into reset first, and then taking it out
of reset. We want to avoid that. it forces a new auto-neg cycles which
takes a little over 1 second. Phylib will try to avoid forcing an
auto-neg so you get link faster. If the PHY does not need to be
reconfigured it won't be and the result of the auto neg can be used.
