net: phy: fix WoL handling when suspending the PHY


Core of the problem is that phy_suspend() suspends the PHY when it
should not because of WoL. phy_suspend() checks for WoL already, but
this works only if the PHY driver handles WoL (what is rarely the case).
Typically WoL is handled by the MAC driver.

This patch uses new member wol_enabled of struct net_device as
additional criteria in the check when not to suspend the PHY because
of WoL.

Last but not least change phy_detach() to call phy_suspend() before
attached_dev is set to NULL. phy_suspend() accesses attached_dev
when checking whether the MAC driver activated WoL.

Fixes: e8cfd9d6 ("net: phy: call state machine synchronously in phy_stop")
