OK I have addressed all of the open comments and will be posting v2 shortly.

I do have a question on this request.
Are you indicating to exclusively call genphy_(suspend/resume) from within the over ridden
routine and then take care of the WoL bits in the phy specific code?

Since the genphy code is duplicated here for the BMCR value that would make the most sense
to me.  The genphy code is exported so I can call it explicitly then do the WoL
