[PATCH] powerpc/gianfar: fix ethernet cannot work after restoring from hibernation

[Wang Dongsheng]

we should make sure a ethernet has been taken down when system into hibernation
status. when the system restoring form hibernation, the ethernet cannot be
taken up.
eg:
~# ifconfig eth0 down
~# echo disk > /sys/power/state

hibernation restore

~# ifconfig eth0 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

[PATCH] gianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation

[Paul Gortmaker]

From: Wang Dongsheng <dongsheng.wang@freescale.com>

If a gianfar ethernet device is down prior to hibernating a
system, it will no longer be present upon system restore.

For example:

	~# ifconfig eth0 down
	~# echo disk > /sys/power/state

	  <trigger a restore from hibernation>

	~# ifconfig eth0 up
	SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

This happens because the restore function bails out early upon
finding devices that were not up at hibernation.  In doing so,
it never gets to the netif_device_attach call at the end of
the restore function.  Adding the netif_device_attach as done
here also makes the gfar_restore code consistent with what is
done in the gfar_resume code.

Hello Paul,

Thought I don't have the proper setup to test the hibernation feature,
I agree with this patch especially now that the description is much
clearer. I fully agree on the consistency argument b/w gfar_restore and
gfar_resume. (good observation)

Applied, thanks.
