The phy layer is missing locking for the above two functions - it
has been observed that two threads (userspace and the phy worker
thread) can race, entering the bus ->write or ->read functions
simultaneously.
This causes the FEC driver to initialise a completion while another
thread is waiting on it or while the interrupt is calling complete()
on it, which causes spinlock unlock-without-lock, spinlock lockups,
and completion timeouts.

This is an alternative way of fixing:
commit db9683fb41 ("net: phy: Make sure PHY_RESUMING state change
is always processed")
When the PHY state transitions from PHY_HALTED to PHY_RESUMING, there are
two things we need to do:
1). Re-enable interrupts (and power up the physical link, if powered down)
2). Update the PHY state and net-device based on the link status.
There's no strict reason why #1 has to be done from within the main
phy_state_machine() function. There is a risk that other changes to the
PHY (e.g. setting speed/duplex, which calls phy_start_aneg()) could cause
a subsequent state transition before phy_state_machine() has processed
the PHY_RESUMING state change. This would leave the PHY with interrupts
disabled and/or still in the BMCR_PDOWN/low-power mode.
Moving enabling the interrupts and phy_resume() into phy_start() will
guarantee this work always gets done. As the PHY is already in the HALTED
state and interrupts are disabled, it shouldn't conflict with any work
being done in phy_state_machine(). The downside of this change is that if
the PHY_RESUMING state is ever entered from anywhere else, it'll also have
to repeat this work.

If phy_start_aneg() was called while the phydev is in the PHY_RESUMING
state, then its state would immediately transition to PHY_AN (or
PHY_FORCING). This meant the phy_state_machine() never processed the
PHY_RESUMING state change, which meant interrupts weren't enabled for the
PHY. If the PHY used low-power mode (i.e. using BMCR_PDOWN), then the
physical link wouldn't get powered up again.
There seems no point for phy_start_aneg() to make the PHY_RESUMING -->
PHY_AN transition, as the state machine will do this anyway. I'm not sure
about the case where autoneg is disabled, as my patch will change
behaviour so that the PHY goes to PHY_NOLINK instead of PHY_FORCING. An
alternative solution would be to move the phy_config_interrupt() and
phy_resume() work out of the state machine and into phy_start().
The background behind this: we're running linux v3.16.7 and from user-space
we want to enable the eth port (i.e. do a SIOCSIFFLAGS ioctl with the
IFF_UP flag) and immediately afterward set the interface's speed/duplex.
Enabling the interface calls .ndo_open() then phy_start() and the PHY
transitions PHY_HALTED --> PHY_RESUMING. Setting the speed/duplex ends up
calling phy_ethtool_sset(), which calls phy_start_aneg() (meanwhile the
phy_state_machine() hasn't processed the PHY_RESUMING state change yet).

and configure energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) features yielded unexpected
behavior.
This patch adds mmd access functions to the phy driver that can be
overriden by the phy specific driver if the phy does not support this
mechanism or uses it's own non-standard access mechanism. By default,
the IEEE Compatible clause 45 access mechanism described in clause 22
is used. With this patch, EEE query/configure functions as expected
