This is presumably that you are seeing with stmmac along with phylink?

During S3 resume you should be going back to the kernel provided
re-entry point and resume where we left (warm boot) so
mdio_bus_phy_resume() should call phy_init_hw() which calls
config_init(), have you traced if that is somehow not happening?

During S4 resume (disk), I suppose that you have to involve the boot
loader to restore the DRAM image from the storage disk, and so that does
effectively look like a quasi cold boot from the kernel? If so, that
should still lead to config_init() being called when the PHY is
attached, no?
