I found that the gemgxlpll was disabled immediately by power
management after macb driver install. The mainline's defconfig doesn't
enable CONFIG_PM, so the network is fine on it. The opensuse defconfig
enables CONFIG_PM, and the patch
732374a0b440d9a79c8412f318a25cd37ba6f4e2 added the enable/disable
callback functions, so the gemgxlpll PLL, I have no idea why power
management disable it, I would keep trace it.

By the way, I tried to disable CONFIG_PM on oenpsuse defconfig, the
system didn't hang anymore, on the contrary, I enable CONFIG_PM on
mainline's defconfig, I expect that the system would hang up as well,
unfortunately, I cannot boot successfully by just enabling CONFIG_PM
easily.
