I don't see any code here to determine if the like is present. What if
the cable is not plugged in?

The code continues

       usleep_range(10, 20);

        /* After reset FORCE_LINK_GOOD bit is set. Although the
         * default value should be unset. Disable FORCE_LINK_GOOD
         * for the phy to work properly.
         */
        return phy_modify(phydev, MII_DP83867_PHYCTRL,
                         DP83867_PHYCR_FORCE_LINK_GOOD, 0);
}

Do you still need to clear the FORCE_LINK_GOOD bit after a restart?
