drivers: ethernet: phy: vsc8541: Add timeout on SW reset (46eb93a3) · Commits · Wenxi XU / zephyr

The driver previously could enter an infinite loop if the PHY software reset failed to complete, which could happen due to hardware reset issues or MDIO bus problems. Add a timeout of 1000 iterations so we report an error in this scenario rather than causing a lockup. Signed-off-by:
