[PATCH 1/4] phylib: Fix deadlock on resume

[Anton Vorontsov]

Sometimes kernel hangs on resume with the following trace:

 ucc_geth e0102000.ucc: resume
 INFO: task bash:1764 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
 "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

 [cf9a7d50] [c01d514c] ugeth_resume+0x6c/0x13c
 [...]

Here is why.

On suspend:

- PM core starts suspending devices, ucc_geth_suspend gets called;

- ucc_geth calls phy_stop() on suspend. Note that phy_stop() is
  mostly asynchronous so it doesn't block ucc_geth's suspend routine,
  it just sets PHY_HALTED state and disables PHY's interrupts;

- Suddenly the state machine gets scheduled, it grabs the phydev->lock
  mutex and tries to process the PHY_HALTED state, so it calls
  phydev->adjust_link(phydev->attached_dev). In ucc_geth case
  adjust_link() calls msleep(), which reschedules the code flow back to
  PM core, which now finishes suspend and so we end up sleeping with
  phydev->lock mutex held.

On resume:

- PM core starts resuming devices (notice that nobody rescheduled
  the state machine yet, so the mutex is still held), the core calls
  ucc_geth's resume routine;

- ucc_geth_resume restarts the PHY with phy_stop()/phy_start()
  sequence, and the phy_*() calls are trying to grab the phydev->lock
  mutex. Here comes the deadlock.

This patch fixes the issue by stopping the state machine on suspend
and starting it again on resume.
