Hi Clark,

Please address Jakub's points and resend with patch 2, thanks. Also,
the subject line should indicate which tree this patch series is
targetting - e.g.

[PATCH net-next v4 1/2] net: phylink: ...

> +/**
> + * phylink_phy_resume() - resume phy alone
> + * @pl: a pointer to a &struct phylink returned from phylink_create()
> + *
> + * In the MAC driver using phylink, if the MAC needs the clock of the phy
> + * when it resumes, can call this function to resume the phy separately.
> + * Then proceed to MAC resume operations.

Please also state that it must only be called prior to calling
phylink_start() in the driver's resume function.

Thanks.
