tg3: Fix poor tx performance on 57766 after MTU change
GRC reset causes the read DMA engine to go into a mode that breaks up requests into 256 bytes. A PHY reset is required to bring it back to the normal mode. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
