Because I was able to fix SMSC myself, I'll just describe the procedure
here:
1) apply this debug patch:
diff --git a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c
index 1b2e253fce75..7b79c5979486 100644
--- a/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c
+++ b/drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c
@@ -310,6 +310,8 @@ static __maybe_unused int mdio_bus_phy_suspend(struct device *dev)
if (phydev->mac_managed_pm)
return 0;
+printk(KERN_INFO "****** MDIO suspend\n");
+
/* Wakeup interrupts may occur during the system sleep transition when
* the PHY is inaccessible. Set flag to postpone handling until the PHY
* has resumed. Wait for concurrent interrupt handler to complete.
2) boot the device without bringing the interface (and thus the PHY) up.
Bringing it down after it was up is not the same! It is important
that it was never up before.
3) do a suspend-to-ram/resume cycle
4) your log should show the above debug message. If not, I was wrong
5) If yes, apply a similar fix to the one I did for the Renesas drivers
in this series
6) suspend/resume should not show the debug message anymore
7) test for regressions and send out :)
I hope this was understandable. If not, feel free to ask.
Happy hacking,
Wolfram

The flag " mac_managed_pm" indicates that the MAC driver will take care of suspending/resuming the PHY, that is to say the MAC driver calls phy_stop()/phy_start() in its PM callbacks. If a ethernet interface never brings up, the MAC PM callbacks do nothing and just return 0 directly. So I think it's fine for the MDIO PM to do suspend/resume the PHY unless the MDIO bus can't be accessed.

I have one board here where accessing the MDIO bus times out, although I don't really understand why. And another one where the call to phy_init_hw() during resume causes issues. There might be more problems with these boards, but I think it is cleaner to avoid any MDIO bus suspend/resume if we have 'mac_managed_pm' anyway.

On Renesas hardware, we had issues because the above flag was set during 'open'. It was concluded that it needs to be set during 'probe'. It looks like FEC needs the same fix but I can't test it because I don't have the hardware. At least, leave a note about the issue.
