igc driver causes suspend to fail if powersave is enabled

Hi,
On Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2i with I225-LM Ethernet card running Fedora 37
kernel 6.1.13-200.fc37.x86_64, running powertop --auto-tune causes suspend
and reboot to fail. Once suspend fails, networking stops working even for
wireless. Infact as a normal user, I cant even start a sudo session after
trying to suspend.
Reboot/shutdown fails since Network-Manager cant be killed. (More below)
The only option left is for the system to be hard-reboot.
I finally found that the problem was because enabling auto or powersave on
ethernet card was causing this issue. i.e
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:0b:00.0/power/control'
Pls do note, I was not using ethernet, I was just using wireless even before
suspend.

We have seen similar problems even with people running other distros like
Arch Linux and RHEL 8 (which is 4.18 based)distros. So this is not distro
specific or kernel specific too.
Even installing tlp package from https://linrunner.de/tlp/index.html causes
similar issues.
