PHYs may come up isolated. Make sure we can send data to them. This code
section needs a clean-up, but I prefer to merge this fix in isolation.

What was the phyid value for the isolated PHYs?

I know that PHYs go into isolate mode if the startup id is wired to 0, but I haven't figured out what's necessary to initialize them: Just clear the isolate bit or is it necessary to set the id to a nonzero value.
