The problem I'm experiencing is with ACPI, so I can't use any of the 
fancy of_ apis like of_get_phy_id().  But I'll look into it.

Is it possible that at803x_suspend() is too aggressive?  That's it's 
effectively disabling the phy?  While the phy is suspended, should it 
still respond to MII_PHYSID1 and MII_PHYSID2 requests?
