From: Martin Fuzzey <martin.fuzzey@flowbird.group> [ Upstream commit 76db2d466f6a929a04775f0f87d837e3bcba44e8 ] The LAN8740, like the 8720, also requires a reset after enabling clock. The datasheet [1] 3.8.5.1 says: "During a Hardware reset, an external clock must be supplied to the XTAL1/CLKIN signal." I have observed this issue on a custom i.MX6 based board with the LAN8740A.
