Calling phy_init_hw() sounds a good idea, and should also fix this issue

But in the case of using stmmac in Amlogic GXL based SoC,
the phy_init_hw() will be skipped due to mac_managed_pm is true

drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_main.c
static int stmmac_phy_setup(struct stmmac_priv *priv)
{
        ...
        priv->phylink_config.mac_managed_pm = true;
}

drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c
static __maybe_unused int mdio_bus_phy_resume(struct device *dev)
{
        struct phy_device *phydev = to_phy_device(dev);
        int ret;

        if (phydev->mac_managed_pm)
                return 0;
        ...
}

I'm not sure if it's safe to go this way, which will change the generic code,
or question - does all phy devices need to call .config_init() in resume() path?

Do you mean do the re-initialization in stmmac_main.c: stmmac_resume()?
It sounds like a feasible way to solve this, but as I'm not really
familiar with stmmac driver,
so, do you have some more detailed suggestions on how we should adapt
the code to fix this?
