From 57dada6819160eb08f2945fb847045f173d3218d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Dooks Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2009 23:49:03 +0000 Subject: KS8851: Add soft reset at probe time Issue a full soft reset at probe time. This was reported by Doong Ping of Micrel, but no explanation of why this is necessary or what bug it is fixing. Add it as it does not seem to hurt the current driver and ensures that the device is in a known state when we start setting it up. Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks Signed-off-by: David S.
