("net: phy: resume/suspend PHYs on attach/detach")
introduced a feature to suspend PHYs when entering halted state.
Unfortunately, not all bootloaders properly power-up PHYs on reset
and fail to access ethernet because the PHY is still powered down.
Therefore, we add a boolean module parameter suspend_halted with
default value of true. Disabling that parameter prevents PHYs from
being suspended when entering halted state.
Am i doing something silly here?
