Yes some boards use more then 1 clk for the ethernet and do not take
care of enabling/disabling the clk in their ACPI.

As Pierre-Louis mentioned already the disabling of the clocks is necessary
to make 100-s of different (tablet) models suspend properly.

Unfortunately this is known to break ethernet on some boards. As a workaround
we use DMI quirks on those few boards to keep the clocks enabled there, see:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/platform/x86/pmc_atom.c#n381

If you can submit a patch adding your board to this DMI table, then I will
merge it and get it on its way to Linus Torvalds asap.

If you instead want me to write the patch for you, please run:

sudo dmidecode > dmidecode.txt

And attach the generated dmidecode.txt file to your next email.

Regards,

Hans
