macb_reset_hw() is called in init path too, though, so maybe clearing
all bits is intentional / wanted to get the controller to a known state,
even though the comment only mentions TX/RX?

If so, maybe the below would be better? But if you think just clearing
TE/RE is better I'll just do it like you suggested.

    val = macb_readl(bp, NCR);

    /* Keep only MDIO port active */
    val &= MACB_BIT(MPE);

    /* Clear statistics */
    val |= MACB_BIT(CLRSTAT);

    macb_writel(bp, NCR, val);
