Would calling renesas_gbeth_clks_config() in the suspend/resume paths
cause problems?

If not, please consider using plat_dat->init() and plat_dat->exit()
to control these clocks, and then use devm_stmmac_pltfr_probe()
which will call the ->init and ->exit functions around the probe
as necessary and at removal time (and you won't need the remove
method.)

Thanks.
