Sorry for being uber nitpicky here, but a state machine is supposed to
contain.. state names, PHY_HALT is more of an action.

The PHY library is not particularly optimized at the moment to avoid
disrupting the link when there is not a need to, so if somehow the
register contents are lost because of a low power mode that the PHY has
entered, the PHY driver's resume function is responsible for bringing
things back online.
