When the command bus is sometimes busy, it may cause the command is not
arrived to MDIO controller immediately. On software, the driver issues a
write command to the command bus does not wait for command complete and
it returned back to code immediately. But a read command will wait for
the data back, once a read command was back indicates the previous write
command had arrived to controller.
Add a dummy read to ensure triggering mdio controller before starting
polling the status of mdio controller to avoid polling unexpected timeout.

Maybe: /* Dummy read to flush previous write to controller */
