Resetting the VSC73xx PHY was problematic because the MDIO bus, without a busy check, read and wrote incorrect register values. My investigation indicates that resetting the PHY only triggers changes in configuration. However, improper register values written earlier were only exposed after a soft reset. The reset itself wasn't the issue; rather, the problem stemmed from incorrect read and write operations. A 'soft_reset' can now proceed normally. There are no reasons to keep the VSC73xx from being reset. This commit removes the reset blockade in the 'vsc73xx_phy_write' function.
