net: usb: ax88179_178a: avoid writing the mac address before first reading
After the commit d2689b6a86b9 ("net: usb: ax88179_178a: avoid two consecutive device resets"), reset operation, in which the default mac address from the device is read, is not executed from bind operation and the random address, that is pregenerated just in case, is direclty written the first time in the device, so the default one from the device is not even read. This writing is not dangerous because is volatile and the default mac address is not missed. In order to avoid this and keep the simplification to have only one reset and reduce the delays, restore the reset from bind operation and remove the reset that is commanded from open operation. The behavior is the same but everything is ready for usbnet_probe. Tested with ASIX AX88179 USB Gigabit Ethernet devices. Restore the old behavior for the rest of possible devices because I don't have the hardware to test. cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 6.6+ Fixes: d2689b6a86b9 ("net: usb: ax88179_178a: avoid two consecutive device resets") Reported-by: Jarkko Palviainen <jarkko.palviainen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jose Ignacio Tornos Martinez <jtornosm@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240417085524.219532-1-jtornosm@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
