asix: Do full reset during ax88772_bind

commit 3cc81d85ee01 ("asix: Don't reset PHY on if_up for ASIX 88772") causes the ethernet on Arndale to no longer function. This appears to be because the Arndale ethernet requires a full reset before it will function correctly, however simply reverting the above patch causes problems with ethtool settings getting reset.

It seems the problem is that the ethernet is not properly reset during bind, and indeed the code in ax88772_bind that resets the device is a very small subset of the actual ax88772_reset function. This patch uses ax88772_reset in place of the existing reset code in ax88772_bind which removes some code duplication and fixes the ethernet on Arndale.

It is still possible that the original patch causes some issues with suspend and resume but that seems like a separate issue and I haven't had a chance to test that yet.

Hi,

I wasn't 100% sure which branch to base this off so I based it on Dave Miller's net-next branch, which seemed logical.

Thanks,
Charles

You're making two critical mistakes here in how you are replying to this patch.

First, do not top post. Quote the commit message, then add your Tested-by or other tag afterwards.

And most importantly, do not provide the entire patch again. That makes a brand new entry in patchwork, rather than adding your Tested-by to the original patch.

These mistakes make more work for everyone trying to get this change into the tree, including me. So please respond and discuss patches like everyone else does by not top-posting and not posting the entire patch in your response.

Thanks.

Since it fixes a regression that is upstream already, I'm applying this to the net tree.

Thanks.
