The GMAC1 controller in the RZN1 IP requires the RX MII clock signal to be
started before it initializes its own hardware, thus before it calls
phylink_start.

Check the rxc_always_on pcs flag and enable the clock signal during the
link validation phase.

However, validation is *not* supposed to change the configuration of
the hardware. Validation may fail. The "interface" that gets passed
to validation may never ever be selected. This change feels like
nothing more than a hack.

Since the MAC driver has to itself provide the PCS to phylink via the
mac_select_pcs() method, the MAC driver already has knowledge of which
PCS it is going to be using. Therefore, I think it may make sense
to do something like this:

int phylink_pcs_preconfig(struct phylink *pl, struct phylink_pcs *pcs)
{
	if (pl->config->mac_requires_rxc)
		pcs->rxc_always_on = true;

	if (pcs->ops->preconfig)
		pcs->ops->pcs_preconfig(pcs);
}

and have stmmac call phylink_pcs_preconfig() for each PCS that it will
be using during initialisation / resume paths?

Yes, that is definitely a much cleaner solution. I'll reimplement the PCS 
changes in this way.
