The vsc85xx_default_config function called in the vsc85xx_config_init
function which is used by VSC8530, VSC8531, VSC8540 and VSC8541 PHYs
mistakenly calls phy_read and phy_write in-between phy_select_page and
phy_restore_page.
phy_select_page and phy_restore_page actually take and release the MDIO
bus lock and phy_write and phy_read take and release the lock to write
or read to a PHY register.
Let's fix this deadlock by using phy_modify_paged which handles
correctly a read followed by a write in a non-standard page.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
