net: phylink: add phylink_prepare_resume()

When the system is suspended, the PHY may be placed in low-power mode
by setting the BMCR 0.11 Power down bit. IEEE 802.3 states that the
behaviour of the PHY in this state is implementation specific, and
the PHY is not required to meet the RX_CLK and TX_CLK requirements.
Essentially, this means that a PHY may stop the clocks that it is
generating while in power down state.

However, MACs exist which require the clocks from the PHY to be running
in order to properly resume. phylink_prepare_resume() provides them
with a way to clear the Power down bit early.

Note, however, that IEEE 802.3 gives PHYs up to 500ms grace before the
transmit and receive clocks meet the requirements after clearing the
power down bit.

Add a resume preparation function, which will ensure that the receive
clock from the PHY is appropriately configured while resuming.
