[PATCH net 0/1] net: phy: Fix interrupt mask loss on resume from hibernation

[Laurent Badel]

Some PHYs such as SMSC LAN87xx clear the interrupt mask register on
software reset. Since mdio_bus_phy_restore() calls phy_init_hw() which
does a software reset of the PHY, these PHYs will lose their interrupt 
mask configuration on resuming from hibernation.

I initially reconfigured only the PHY interrupt mask using 
phydev->config_intr(), which worked fine with PM_DEBUG/test_resume, but
there seems to be an issue when resuming from a real hibernation, by which
the interrupt type is not set appropriately (in this case 
IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW). Calling irq_set_irq_type() directly from sysfs 
restored the PHY functionality immediately suggesting that everything is
otherwise well configured. Therefore this patch suggests freeing and
re-requesting the interrupt, to guarantee proper interrupt configuration.
