Add stmmac_fpe_stop_wq() in stmmac_suspend() to terminate FPE
workqueue during suspend. So, in suspend mode, there will be no FPE
workqueue available. Without this fix, new additional FPE workqueue
will be created in every suspend->resume cycle.

hand-shaking procedure")

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the stable kernel
tree.  Please read:
    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.

I'm sorry. Will follow the correct process. Thank you for the advice.
