Subject: [PATCH net-next] igb: reset PHY after recovering from PHY power down

According to 82576_Datasheet.pdf, PHY setting is lost after PHY power down.
So resetting PHY is needed when recovering from PHY power down to set a default
setting to PHY register.

Owing to this lack, NIC doesn't link up in some rare situation.
The situation I encountered is following.

1.Both ports connect to switch.
+---------+           +--------+
|         |-----------|        |
| 82576NS |           | switch |
|         |-----------|        |
+---------+           +--------+

2.Detach both cables from switch.
+---------+           +--------+
|         |-------    |        |
| 82576NS |           | switch |
|         |-------    |        |
+---------+           +--------+

3.Detach one cable from one port.
+---------+           +--------+
|         |-------    |        |
| 82576NS |           | switch |
|         |           |        |
+---------+           +--------+

4.Attach that cable to the other port.(It means connecting directly each port)
+---------+           +--------+
|         |-------+   |        |
| 82576NS |       |   | switch |
|         |-------+   |        |
+---------+           +--------+

As a result, NIC doesn't link up sometimes.
