Note that also the phy reset and waiting for "link-up" takes about 2 seconds every time. I did not realise earlier that it would take this long, but this is the part before the "TFTP from server..." line is displayed and he transfer even starts.

isn't your problem related to the fact that when you reset the PHY it
samples some pins to get some settings and that after the first reset it
could gets wrong settings because the i.MX pins are in a wrong state
(because handled by the FEC) leading to the errors you meet ?
