It's not an unusual case that system cuts power to the PHY during
system suspend. So the PHY needs to be re-initialized on resume.
That's why we call phy_init_hw() in mdio_bus_phy_resume().

If going your way we would be better off calling .config_init()
in genphy_resume(). Please check the MAC driver, maybe it's better
to re-initialize the PHY in the resume path of the MAC driver.
