what I meant by no interrupt generation was not even physical interrupt
generation i.e. the signal does not toggle in suspend-to-RAM, but it
does during normal operation.

Thank you for your feedback, I will analyze the clocks carefully.

Primarily I would like to know if my approach makes sense in the first
place even if there is no clock dependency. Two dwmacs (realtek and
intel) make use of the USE_PHY_WOL flag, but I could not find any dts
where the mac-wol property is used to check if the MAC power source is
off in suspend.
