Don't forget that when resuming from S4, we effectively boot the kernel normally, then check whether we are resuming, before we then start loading the resume image, suspend the current kernel, shuffle the pages around, and resume the original kernel.
What that means is that a PHY will see the effects of a normal kernel boot before we resume the original kernel. If a PHY driver (e.g.) disables features such as WOL and we do not restore these settings on resume, then those settings will be reset.
