This patch adds the power management support into the physical
abstraction layer.

Suspend and resume functions respectively turns on/off the bit 11
into the PHY Basic mode control register.
Generic PHY device starts supporting PM.

In order to support the wake-on LAN and avoid to put in power down
the PHY device, the MDIO is aware of what the Ethernet device wants to do.

Voluntary, no CONFIG_PM defines were added into the sources.
Also generic suspend/resume functions are exported to allow
other drivers use them (such as genphy_config_aneg etc.).

Within the phy_driver_register function, we need to remove the
memset. It overrides the device driver owner and it is not good.

Applied.

We should audit all of the phy_driver_register() callers to make
sure the removal of that memset() won't cause any problems.

A while ago Andy Fleming had replied to one of my patches expressing an
interest in implementing WOL (which I expanded to mean "more control of
the lifetime of the phy") within the phylib.  I responded that there
were two problems with that approach.  Very briefly, the problems were
that the phylib did not have enough information available to determine
what power state to put the phy into (think management firmware), and
that turning off the phy might interfere with the normal operation of
some MAC registers.  I'm sorry that thread died so abruptly.

My concerns remain though.  At the time the phy is initially probed,
there is no way to gather enough information to determine whether or not
it is safe to power down the phy.  The earliest such information can be
communicated is through the flags parameter of the phy_connect()
function.

I can't speak for the other uses of the phylib, but for tg3 it makes a
lot of sense to place phy power management in the hands of the driver
that controls it.  If you agree, can we devise a way to bypass the
suspend callback?
