For me that would be a reason not to do it that way, because we will not be able
to support some devices (all that use an RTL8231 GPIO for the hardware reset).
At least we would not be able to reliably reset them
and they would either not reboot (because of the 3/4 byte issue) or a messed up
network configuration.
