I believe your intention is

priv->phycr1 &= ~(RTL8211F_ALDPS_PLL_OFF | RTL8211F_ALDPS_ENABLE | RTL8211F_ALDPS_XTAL_OFF); 
However, this is not necessary. See below.

The last param "set" of phy_modify_paged_changed() means *bit mask of bits to set*
If we don't want to enable ALDPS, 0 is enough.

Even if uboot configured the PHY before linux, I believe phy_modify_paged_changed()
can clear ALDPS bits w/o above 5 LoCs.
