Is there any documentation as to what register 31 does?

Maybe the real problem is in ipq8064_mdio_wait_busy()? Have you looked
at how long you typically end up waiting? If you know the MDIO bus
speed, you can work out how long a transaction should take. If it is
taking less, something is broken.

Are you sure regmap caching is disabled, so that
ipq8064_mdio_wait_busy() really is reading the register, not some
old cached value?
