There's no corresponding delay in the vendor driver; the delay as it
is used in the driver (before starting the PHY) makes no sense and
shouldn't be used for new platforms; and I've verified that it isn't
needed on SC8280XP.

I'm confident that this was just another case of copy-pasting. And the
buck stops here (with SC8280XP). ;)
