Subject: [PATCH] net: nxp: lpc_eth.c: avoid hang when bringing interface down

From: Trevor Woerner <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2021 13:50:02 -0400

A hard hang is observed whenever the ethernet interface is brought
down. If the PHY is stopped before the LPC core block is reset,
the SoC will hang. Comparing lpc_eth_close() and lpc_eth_open() I
re-arranged the ordering of the functions calls in lpc_eth_close() to
reset the hardware before stopping the PHY.
