This is not ethernet PHY stuff (drivers/net/phy), it's serdes PHY
(drivers/phy). Their requirements vary a lot.

Given the above description...

In (1), phy_power_off() gets called. If this is actually done by
the serdes PHY driver, then the clocks from the serdes PHY stop.

Whether the PHY is re-initialised or not during the suspend/resume
should not affect it - we haven't asked for it to be powered up
again.

So in (5), I assume that the problem occurs because macb_init_hw()
is called before phy_power_on()... but what do I know... with these
randomly generated abbreviations that are designed to exclude people
from understanding what is going on which seem to be common in the
computing world. FPD? GT? Shrug, utterly meaningless.

However, surely phy_init() while the PHY is supposed to be powered
off should fail? Don't know, this is outside of my area of knowledge.
Adding generic phy maintainers and list...
