phylib: fix PAL state machine restart on resume
On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function. This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver is a such example.
