Summary:
The previously used software reset routine wasn't sufficient
to reset the PHY if the bootloader hadn't left the device in
an initialized state. This was seen with the onboard igc port
on an 11th-gen Intel NUC.
The software reset isn't used in the Linux driver so all related
code has been removed.
Tested on: Netgate 6100 onboard ports, a discrete PCIe I225-LM card,
and an 11th-gen Intel NUC.

(cherry picked from commit 561cd74b17)
This controller supports 2.5G/1G/100MB/10MB speeds, and allows
tx/rx checksum offload, TSO, LRO, and multi-queue operation.
The driver was derived from code contributed by Intel, and modified
by Netgate to fit into the iflib framework.
Thanks to Mike Karels for testing and feedback on the driver.
