Attached is a patch that preserved the contents of PHY_BMCR during a soft reset by only setting the reset bit. This allows the PHY strapping to be preserved. The patch also include an enhancement that allows overiding of the miiphy_speed and miiphy_duplex functions when RGMII is used without PHYs for proper MAC configuration.

Regards, Carl Riechers
