phy: micrel: Disable auto negotiation on startup
Disable auto negotiation on init to properly detect an already plugged cable at boot. At boot, when the phy is started, it is in the PHY_UP state. However, if a cable is plugged at boot, because auto negociation is already enabled at the time we get the first interrupt, the phy is already running. But the state machine then switches from PHY_UP to PHY_AN and calls phy_start_aneg(). phy_start_aneg() will not do anything because aneg is already enabled on the phy. It will then wait for a interrupt before going further. This interrupt will never happen unless the cable is unplugged and then replugged. It was working properly before 321beec5 (net: phy: Use interrupts when available in NOLINK state) because switching to NOLINK meant starting polling the phy, even if IRQ were enabled.
