Actually I thought there is a full FEC reset in fec_halt():
writel(readl(fec->regs + FEC_X_CNTRL) | FEC_ECNTRL_RESET,
fec->regs + FEC_X_CNTRL);
I only saw the FEC_ECNTRL_RESET bit but didn't realize this goes to a
completely unrelated register. We should have a FEC_X_CNTRL_GTS define
for this.
Given that, the fec_halt/fec_init path really looks quite different from
the fec_probe/fec_init path.
