e100: e100_phy_init() isolates selected PHY, causes 10 second boot delay
A change in how PHYs are electrically isolated caused all PHYs to be isolated followed by reverting that isolation for the selected PHY. Unfortunately, isolating the selected PHY for even a short period of time can result in DHCP negotiation taking more than 10 seconds on certain embedded configurations delaying boot time as reported by Bernhard Kaindl. This patch reverts the change to how PHYs are isolated yet still works around the issue for 82552 needing the selected PHY's BMCR register to be written after the unused PHYs are isolated. This code is moved below the setting of nic->phy ID in order to do the 82552-specific workaround.
