phy_suspend() doesn't get called as part of phy_stop() for PHYs using interrupts because the phy state machine is never triggered after a phy_stop(). Explicitly trigger the PHY state machine in phy_stop() so that it can see the new PHY state (HALTED) and suspend the PHY. As most PHYLIB consumers will call phy_stop() with rtnl_lock() held from ndo_close() so we use don't wait for workqueue cancellation in phy_trigger_machine() by passing false for the 'sync' argument. Fixes: 3c293f4e08b5 ("net: phy: Trigger state machine on state change and not polling.")
