Some PHYs such as SMSC LAN87xx clear the interrupt mask register on
software reset. Since mdio_bus_phy_restore() calls phy_init_hw() which
does a software reset of the PHY, these PHYs will lose their interrupt 
mask configuration on resuming from hibernation.
The (optional) software reset is done via soft_reset callback.
So if the PHY in question needs special treatment after a soft reset,
why not add it to the soft_reset callback?
I initially reconfigured only the PHY interrupt mask using 
phydev->config_intr(), which worked fine with PM_DEBUG/test_resume, but
there seems to be an issue when resuming from a real hibernation, by which
the interrupt type is not set appropriately (in this case 
IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW). Calling irq_set_irq_type() directly from sysfs 
This sounds to me like a lower level driver (e.g. for GPIO / interrupt
controller) not resuming properly from hibernation. Supposedly things
like edge/level high/low/both are stored per interrupt line in a register
of the interrupt controller, and the controller would have to restore
the register value on resume from hibernation. You may want to have
a look at that driver.
restored the PHY functionality immediately suggesting that everything is
otherwise well configured. Therefore this patch suggests freeing and
re-requesting the interrupt, to guarantee proper interrupt configuration.
