Re: [PATCH] net: phy: Don't disable irqs on shutdown if WoL is enabled

Most PHYs signal WoL using an interrupt. So disabling interrupts breaks
WoL at least on PHYs covered by the marvell driver. So skip disabling
irqs on shutdown if WoL is enabled.

While at it also explain the motivation that irqs are disabled at all.

Hello,

while I'm not sure that disabling interrupts is a good idea in general,
this change at least should fix the WoL case. Note that this change is
only compile tested as next doesn't boot on my test machine (because of
https://git.kernel.org/linus/b3574f579ece24439c90e9a179742c61205fbcfa)
and 6.1 (which is the other kernel I have running) doesn't know about
.wol_enabled. I don't want to delay this fix until I bisected this new
issue.

Assuming this patch is eligible for backporting to stable, maybe point
out that it depends on v6.5-rc1~163^2~286^2~2 ("net: phy: Allow drivers
to always call into ->suspend()"). Didn't try to backport that.

Best regards
Uwe
