Shouldn't phy_connect_direct, called from lan78xx_phy_init, already have enabled interrupts for us?

This patch addresses two problems - time wasted by renegotiating the link after the reset and the
missed interrupt - and I'd like both to be fixed. Unless you can come up with a good reason for
performing the reset from the open handler I think it should be removed.
