* Due to HW bug, LAN8700 sometimes does not detect presence of energy in the

LAN87xx family of PHY chips.
* The lan87xx_read_status() was improved to acquire ENERGYON bit. Its previous
algorythm still not reliable on 100 % and sometimes skip cable plugging.

Is there a reason to move this declaration?
There is no strict requirement to move declaration of the rc.
It was made just to have all declarations easily visible.
