I'm assuming you have exclusive access to the phy and this isn't a
shared line? Just wanting to confirm since the function call has the
following comment in the header for the documentation.

 * Consumers must not use reset_control_(de)assert on shared reset lines when
 * reset_control_reset has been used.
 *

If that is the case it might not hurt to add some documentation to
your call to reset_control_reset here explaining that it is safe to do
so since you have exclusive access.
