So the same problem appears if you take out the FLP call out entirely,
if there is an aneg restart done immediately before trying to read from
MII_ADVERTISE?

Does only MII_ADVERTISE fail to read, or does reading any PHY register
fail?  Specifically, does reading MII_BMSR fail?

Reading PHY register after restarting aneg isn't unusual.  Especially
polling MII_BMSR to check for BMSR_ANEGCOMPLETE.  It would be odd if one
couldn't do that.

The first anreg start call will also un-powerdown the PHY if BMCR_PDOWN
was set.  I wonder if that is happening?
