Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: macb: fix connectivity after resume

Commit bf0ad1893442 ("net: macb: Specify PHY PM management done by MAC")
signals to PHY layer that the PHY PM management is done by the MAC driver
itself. In case this is done the mdio_bus_phy_suspend() and
mdio_bus_phy_resume() will return just at its beginning letting the MAC
driver to handle the PHY power management.

AT91 devices (e.g. SAMA7G5, SAMA5D2) has a special power saving mode
called backup and self-refresh where most of the SoCs parts are shutdown
on suspend and RAM is switched to self-refresh. The rail powering the
on-board ethernet PHY could also be closed.

For scenarios where backup and self-refresh is used the MACB driver needs
to re-initialize the PHY device itself when resuming. Otherwise there is
poor or missing connectivity (e.g. SAMA7G5-EK uses KSZ9131 in RGMII mode
which needs its DLL settings to satisfy RGMII timings). For this
phylink_init_phydev() has been called on resume path before
phylink_start(). Up to
commit bf0ad1893442 ("net: macb: Specify PHY PM management done by MAC")
this has been handled by mdio_bus_phy_resume().

This has been tested on SAMA7G5-EK (with KSZ9131 and KSZ8081 PHYs), on
SAMA5D2 (with KSZ8081 PHY), on SAM9X60 (with KSZ8081 PHY).

This patch depends on patch 1/2 from this series. For proper backporting
to older kernel (in case this series is integrated as is) please add the
Depends-on tag on this patch after patch 1/2 is integrated in networking
tree.

Thank you,
