[ upstream commit 6fcd0de92298f61b8f96ba170db9e81923019626 ]

Driver should not send the phy_cfg request to bring link down
during reset recovery. If the driver sends the phy_cfg request
in recovery process, then FW needs to re-establish the link which
in turn increases the recovery time based on PHY type and link partners.

Fixes: df6cd7c1f73a ("net/bnxt: handle reset notify async event from FW")
