It's nice if the phy is online before we register the netdev
so try to do that first.

Hi Linus

The PHY handling in this driver is all a bit odd.

gmac_open() will also try to connect the PHY if it has not already
been found. gmac_stop() does not seem to have a symmetrical
phy_disconnect. However, gmac_uninit does?

I do wonder if more cleanup should be done while you are at it?

OK I send a new more invasive version :)

Thanks,
