Subject: [PATCH v1 2/6] clk: qcom: Skip halt checks on gcc_usb3_phy_pipe_clk for 8998

The gcc_usb3_phy_pipe_clk is generated by the phy, but is also used by
the phy during init. The clock needs to be enabled during the init
sequence, but may not be fully active until after the init sequence is
complete. This causes a catch-22 if the clock status is checked during
enable. As a result, skip the checks to avoid the troubling situation.

Interesting. I was unaware of past discussion(s) on this. Thank you
for taking the change, but I'll try having a look to see if maybe I can
prove your theory going forward.

I will ask again, is anyone going to fix this in the phy driver? In
theory it isn't needed if the phy driver can do things differently, but
last time I checked I was told that the phy team said it had to be done
this way.
