Log:
  On some platforms touching the bb registers when the phy is powered
  down will cause a fault.  Check the phy power state before possibly
  reading from the bb, this can happen as ar5212Reset intentionally
  calls ar5212GetRfgain before bringing the bb out of reset (but we
  do it here and not in the caller to guard against other possible uses).
