Sure, I would have to check the specification document to make sure
whether this does not need to be coded similarly to what
genphy_soft_reset() does, which is polling for the reset bit to clear
itself.

v2 also renamed the current gen10g_soft_reset() into
gen10g_no_soft_reset() so your implementation makes even more sense now.
