In fec driver, it has supported hardware reset for PHY when MAC resume back,

fec_resume() -> phy_init_hw() -> phy_device_reset() de-assert the reset signal, you only need implement
the properties which PHY core provided.

I think you should not use deprecated reset properties provided by fec driver, instead the common
reset properties provided by PHY core.

Please check the dt-bindings for more details:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fsl,fec.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet-phy.yaml
