A phy HW might have a specific behavior that should be exposed to the phy
SW structure by calling this callback. This is the reason behind this
callback. does it make more sense now ?

Like we observed in our case, often there are need to be extra operations
in the suspend/resume sequence. those specific operations include turning
off/on specific clocks, disabling/enabling regulators etc. the specific
implementation must give enough flexibility to add whatever needed to be
done in suspend/resume sequences.
