+ * @phydev: Pointer to the phy_device structure
+ *
+ * This function addresses a limitation of the DP83TG720 PHY, which cannot
+ * reliably detect or report a stable link state. To recover from such
+ * scenarios, the PHY must be periodically reset when the link is down. However,
+ * if the link partner also runs Linux with the same driver, synchronized reset
+ * intervals can lead to a deadlock where the link never establishes due to
+ * simultaneous resets on both sides.
+ *
+ * To avoid this, the function implements randomized polling intervals when the
+ * link is down. It ensures that reset intervals are desynchronized by
+ * introducing a random delay between a configured minimum and maximum range.
+ * When the link is up, a fixed polling interval is used to minimize overhead.
+ *
+ * This mechanism guarantees that the link will reestablish within 10 seconds
+ * in the worst-case scenario.
+ *
+ * Return: Time (in jiffies) until the next update event for the PHY state
+ * machine.
