net: phy: microchip: Use genphy_soft_reset() to purge stale LPA bits
Enable .soft_reset for the LAN88xx PHY driver by assigning genphy_soft_reset() to ensure that the phylib core performs a proper soft reset during reconfiguration. Previously, the driver left .soft_reset unimplemented, so calls to phy_init_hw() (e.g., from lan88xx_link_change_notify()) did not fully reset the PHY. As a result, stale contents in the Link Partner Ability (LPA) register could persist, causing the PHY to incorrectly report that the link partner advertised autonegotiation even when it did not. Using genphy_soft_reset() guarantees a clean reset of the PHY and corrects the false autoneg reporting in these scenarios.
