 to fix resume issue with WoL enabled

Hi Clark,

Please address Jakub's points and resend with patch 2, thanks. Also,
the subject line should indicate which tree this patch series is
targetting - e.g.

[PATCH net-next v4 1/2] net: phylink: ...

> +/**
> + * phylink_phy_resume() - resume phy alone
> + * @pl: a pointer to a &struct phylink returned from phylink_create()
> + *
> + * In the MAC driver using phylink, if the MAC needs the clock of the phy
> + * when it resumes, can call this function to resume the phy separately.
> + * Then proceed to MAC resume operations.

Please also state that it must only be called prior to calling
phylink_start() in the driver's resume function.

Thanks.
