Hi Andrew, hi Stefan,

tried to reduce the init sequence. This worked for me:

static int mv88q222x_config_init(struct phy_device *phydev)
{
	int ret;

	/* send_s detection threshold, slave and master */
	ret = phy_write_mmd(phydev, MDIO_MMD_AN, 0x8032, 0x2020);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;

	ret = phy_write_mmd(phydev, MDIO_MMD_AN, 0x8031, 0xa28);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;

	ret = phy_write_mmd(phydev, MDIO_MMD_AN, 0x8031, 0xc28);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;

	ret = phy_write_mmd(phydev, MDIO_MMD_PCS, 0xffe4, 0xc);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;

	return mv88q2xxx_config_init(phydev);
}

The four register writes were required to make the PHY work in 1000Mbit forced
mode. When using autonegotiation or 100Mbit forced mode they weren't needed.
It was enough to write them once in mv88q222x_config_init as you can
see. Thanks Stefan for the hint with the first three register writes, it
helped a lot.
