I am trying to rebase my changes on top of your two patches and
noticed a couple of things.

ndev can never be NULL here. socfpga_dwmac_init() is only called if
stmmac_dvr_probe() succeeds or we are running the resume callback. So
I don't see how this could ever be NULL.

It's not really nice to access 'stmmac_priv' as it should be private
to the core driver, but I don't see any other good solution right now.

Before this change phy_resume() was only called during driver resume
when , but your patches cause phy_resume() to called at probe time as
well. Is this okey?
