From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@xxxxxxx>
The hibernation mode of Atheros AR803x PHYs is default enabled.
When the cable is unplugged, the PHY will enter hibernation
mode and the PHY clock does down. For some MACs, it needs the
clock to support it's logic. For instance, stmmac needs the PHY
inputs clock is present for software reset completion. Therefore,
It is reasonable to add a DT property to disable hibernation mode.
