Hi Nathan
What device are you using this with?
The Marvell Switch driver does its own GPIO reset handling. It has a
better idea when a hardware reset should be applied than what the
phylib core has. It will also poll the EEPROM busy bit after a
reset. How long a pause you need after the reset depends on how full
the EEPROM is.
And i've never had problems with broken-turn-around with Marvell
switches.
Given the complexity of an Ethernet switch, it is probably better if
it handles its own reset.
