BeagleBone Black Ethernet PHY issues

Hi all,

During the last few months, booting kernels on BeagleBone Black
sometimes fails with:

    +SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 4a101000.mdio:00: probe with driver SMSC
LAN8710/LAN8720 failed with error -5
     davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: phy[0]: device 4a101000.mdio:00,
driver SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720
     soc_device_match(cpsw_soc_devices): no match
     cpsw-switch 4a100000.switch: initialized cpsw ale version 1.4
     ...

    +cpsw-125mhz-clkctrl:0014:0: failed to disable
     am335x-phy-driver 47401b00.usb-phy: using DT

     ...
     cpsw-switch 4a100000.switch: starting ndev. mode: dual_mac
    -SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 4a101000.mdio:00: attached PHY driver

    -cpsw-switch 4a100000.switch eth0: Link is Up - 100Mbps/Full -

    +cpsw-switch 4a100000.switch: phy

not found on slave 0
    +[HANG]

Adding debug prints to smsc_phy_probe() makes the issue go away, so it
must be timing related.

Adding specific debug prints in the failure case gives:

    SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 4a101000.mdio:00: genphy_read_abilities:2859:
phy_read(MII_BMSR) failed -EIO
    SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 4a101000.mdio:00: phy_probe:3613:
genphy_read_abilities() failed -EIO
    SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720 4a101000.mdio:00: probe with driver SMSC
LAN8710/LAN8720 failed with error -5

and later:

    Generic PHY 4a101000.mdio:00: genphy_read_abilities:2859:
phy_read(MII_BMSR) failed -EIO
    Generic PHY 4a101000.mdio:00: phy_probe:3609:
genphy_read_abilities failed -EIO
    cpsw-switch 4a100000.switch: phy
"/ocp/interconnect@4a000000/segment@0/target-module@100000/switch@0/mdio@1000/ethernet-phy@0"
not found on slave 0

Adding debug prints to __mdiobus_read() and davinci_mdio_read() gives:

    mdio_bus 4a101000.mdio: davinci_mdio_read:444:
readl(&data->regs->user[0].access) = 0x3a0ffff
    mdio_bus 4a101000.mdio: __mdiobus_read:900: davinci_mdio_read failed -EIO

but this is a different (and unimportant?) early failure from
smsc_phy_config_intr(), and that debug print actually makes the issue go
away, too.

Ignoring the early failure reveals that phy_read(MII_BMSR) failed due
to:

    mdio_bus 4a101000.mdio: davinci_mdio_read:446:
readl(&data->regs->user[0].access) = 0x20ffff

Anyone with a clue?
Thanks!
