net: phy: bcm7xxx: workaround MDIO management controller initial read
The initial MDIO read or write towards the BCM7xxx integrated PHY may fail, workaround this by inserting a dummy MII_BMSR read to force the MDIO management controller to see at least one valid transaction and get out of stuck state out of reset.
