[PATCH net] net: phy: dp83867: add w/a for packet errors seen with short cables

From: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.strashko at ti.com>

Introduce the W/A for packet errors seen with short cables (<1m) between
two DP83867 PHYs.

The W/A recommended by DM requires FFE Equalizer Configuration tuning by
writing value 0x0E81 to DSP_FFE_CFG register (0x012C), surrounded by hard
and soft resets as follows:

write_reg(0x001F, 0x8000); //hard reset
write_reg(DSP_FFE_CFG, 0x0E81);
write_reg(0x001F, 0x4000); //soft reset

Since  DP83867 PHY DM says "Changing this register to 0x0E81, will not
affect Long Cable performance.", enable the W/A by default.
