The issue happened randomly in runtime.  The message "Link is Down" is
popped but soon it recovered to "Link is Up".

The "Link is Down" results from the incorrect read data for reading the
PHY register via MDIO bus.  The correct sequence for reading the data
shall be:
1. fire the command
2. wait for command done (this step was missing)
3. wait for data idle
4. read data from data register

Fixes: a9770eac511a ("net: mdio: Move MDIO drivers into a new subdirectory")

I consulted the datasheet and it doesn't mention this. Perhaps
something to be added?

I think this should be:

Fixes: f160e99462c6 ("net: phy: Add mdio-aspeed")

We should cc stable too.

Since there will be v2, please also add a space between net: and phy:.

Should I use "net: mdio: " instead of "net: phy: "? Since this file was moved from net/phy to net/mdio by commit a9770eac511a.

Sorry, I got this mail after I sent v2 out.  Should I prepare patch v3 with --subject-prefix='PATCH net'?
