From: Yanqing Wang <ot_yanqing.wang at mediatek.com>
Identify the cause of the suspend/resume hang: netif_carrier_off()
is called during link state changes and becomes stuck while
executing linkwatch_work().
To resolve this issue, call netif_device_detach() during the Ethernet
suspend process to temporarily detach the network device from the
kernel and prevent the suspend/resume hang.
