[PATCH v4] net: stmmac: fix 'ethtool -P' return -EBUSY

The permanent mac address should be available for query when the device
is not up.
NetworkManager, the system network daemon, uses 'ethtool -P' to obtain
the permanent address after the kernel start. When the network device
is not up, it will return the device busy error with 'ethtool -P'. At
that time, it is unable to access the Internet through the permanent
address by NetworkManager.
I think that the '.begin' is not used to check if the device is up.

Please in alphabetical order.

Add error check, like:
ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(priv->device);
if (ret < 0) {
	pm_runtime_put_noidle(priv->device);
	return ret;
}

Best Regards,

You forgot to update the commit message.
