Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net: phy: suspend phydev on PHY_HALTED even if there is no link

When the phydev is put to PHY_HALTED (by e.g. phy_stop()) the state
machine suspends the phydev to save power.

However, this is wrongly inside a phydev->link check, causing the phydev
not to be suspended if there was no link at the time of stopping it.

Fix that by setting do_suspend regardless of whether there was a link or
not.
