Yes, indeed it replaces this patch. I did some more research on how the
hardware actually behaves.

Thank you very much for testing.

By reboot I guess that you mean typing "reboot" or by using SysRq magic
and not power cycling?

If so, I had experienced the same symptoms. I guess that the Ethernet
chip is not reset properly and fails to enumerate without power cycling
(it's nRESET pin is connected to P3V3).

I found that removing regulator-always-on from buck8_reg: BUCK8 in the
dts file fixes this problem.
