[PATCH net-next v2 6/7] net: phy: at803x: Avoid hibernating if MAC requires RX clock

From: Russell King <linux at armlinux.org.uk>

Stmmac controllers connected to an at803x PHY cannot resume properly after
suspend when WoL is enabled. This happens because the MAC requires an RX
clock generated by the PHY to initialize its hardware properly. But the RX
clock is cut when the PHY suspends and isn't brought up until the MAC
driver resumes the phylink.

Prevent the at803x PHY driver from going into suspend if the attached MAC
driver always requires an RX clock signal.
