net: socionext: Add dummy PHY register read in phy_write()
There is a compatibility issue between RTL8211E implemented in Developerbox and netsec ethernet controller IP. Our MDIO controller stops MDC clock right after the write access, but RTL8211E expects MDC clock must be kept toggling for several clock cycle with MDIO high before entering the IDLE state. Without keeping clock after write access, write access is not correctly handled and register is not updated. To meet this requirement, netsec driver needs to issue dummy read(e.g. read PHYID1(offset 0x2) register) right after write access, to keep MDC clock. We think this compatibility issue is a problem specific to our MDIO controller and RTL8211E.
