Commit 7cd1463664c2a15721ff4ccfb61d4d970815cb3d (introduced with 3.14) changed the initialization of the mv643xx_eth driver to use phy_init_hw() to reset the PHY. Unfortunately the initialization for the 88E1116R PHY was broken such, that it used mdelay() instead of really waiting for a reset to finish.
The effect was that the ethernet on my Kirkwood 88F6281 based device didn't come up anymore (no carrier).
Fix this by waiting for a reset to finish before proceeding further.

Not clear why it's necessary to reset one more time... Also, tight loop without a timeout (0.5 sec, specified by IEEE 802.3) doesn't look good. The comment above phy_poll_reset() suggests that it could be used in the PHY drivers as well. Florian?
Ah, I was looking at Linus' tree, not net-next.git, and hadn't read Florian's replies before commenting on this...
