net: fec: Fix to suspend / resume with mac_managed_pm
Since the introduction of mac_managed_pm in the FEC driver there were some
discrepancies regarding power management of the PHY.
This failed on our board that has a permanently powered Microchip LAN8700R
attached to the FEC. Although the root cause of the failure can be traced
back to
f166f890c8f0 ("net: ethernet: fec: Replace interrupt driven MDIO
with polled IO") and probably even before that, we only started noticing
the problem going from 5.10 to 6.1.
Since
557d5dc83f68 ("net: fec: use mac-managed PHY PM") is actually a fix
to most of the power management sequencing problems that came with power
managing the MDIO bus which for the FEC meant adding a race with FEC
resume (and phy_start() if netif was running) and PHY resume.
That it worked before for us was probably just luck...
Thanks to Wei's response to my report at [1] I was able to pick up his
patch and start honing in on the remaining missing details.
