Why is this obvious? Please elaborate on why a soft reset should break
something.

Why? That would need to be checked in detail. Maybe chip errata
documentation provides a hint.

If the MAC driver calls phy_stop() on suspend, then phydev->suspended
is true and mdio_bus_phy_may_suspend() returns false. As a consequence
phydev->suspended_by_mdio_bus is false and mdio_bus_phy_resume()
skips the PHY hw initialization.
Please also note that mdio_bus_phy_suspend() calls phy_stop_machine()
that sets the state to PHY_UP.
Having said that the current argumentation isn't convincing. I'm not
aware of such issues on other systems, therefore it's likely that
something is system-dependent.
Please check the exact call sequence on your system, maybe it
provides a hint.
