Why clear the carrier during open? You should probably clear it once on
the probe path and then on stop.  
In net_open(), the GMAC is not ready to receive or transmit packets.
Therefore, netif_carrier_off() is called.

Packets can be received or transmitted only after the PHY is linked.
Therefore, netif_carrier_on() should be called in adjust_link.
But why are you calling _off() during .ndo_open() ?
Surely the link is also off before ndo_open is called?
In net_stop() we also call netif_carrier_off()
Exactly, so it should already be off.
