From: Alexandre Messier amessier@tycoint.com

When configuring a PHY in fixed (forced) link mode, in order for the changes to be applied, either one of these conditions must be triggered: 1- PHY is reset 2- Autoneg is restarted 3- PHY transitions from power-down to power-up

Neither of these is currently done, so effectively the fixed link configuration is not applied in the PHY.

Fix this by setting the Autoneg restart bit.
