An exception is sometimes seen when the link speed is changed
from auto-negotiation to a fixed speed, or vice versa. The
exception occurs when the MAC is reset (due to the link speed
change) at the same time as the PHY state machine is accessing
a PHY register.

Add serialisation to the MAC reset to eliminate the race condition.
