Even though the link is down before entering hibernation,
there is an issue that the network interface always links up after resuming
from hibernation.

The phydev->state is PHY_READY before enabling the network interface, so
the link is down. After resuming from hibernation, the phydev->state is
forcibly set to PHY_UP in mdio_bus_phy_restore(), and the link becomes up.

This patch adds a new convenient function to check whether the PHY is in
a started state, and expects to solve the issue by changing phydev->state
to PHY_UP and calling phy_start_machine() only when the PHY is started.

Don't you need some of these steps to be performed under phydev->lock
being held? See comment below.
Yes, locking should be done. The old code sets phydev->state
w/o holding the lock, I'd says this was wrong.
Indeed. The phydev->state should be set with locking the mutex even here.

And it seems that setting phydev->link and calling phy_start_machine() don't
need to hold the lock. Is it correct?
Yes

An assert with the phydev->lock mutex being held here would greatly
help, because otherwise this is possibly racy.
Have a look at __phy_resume() to see what is meant with this comment.
I see. I found that there was a lock detection in this function.
The phy_is_started() should have the same detection, shouldn't it?
Correct
Thank you,
