Hi,

I agree that the driver should enable clock it used by itself and not
depends on init order. This should be fixed.

But in general, I think it make sense to only add hcd after all required
resource are ready. At least it remove unnecessary calls to
usb_add_hcd/usb_remove_hcd. Is it better if the commit message is
changed to something like the below?

Currently xhci_plat_probe() call usb_add_hcd before trying to init the
phy. However if the phy is not ready at the moment, it have to remove
the hcd and probe again later

Change the init order so we only add hcd when all required resource are
ready.

Hi

Rogers Quadros patchseries that changes how HCDs are created and added for
xhci-plat was just sent forward. It first creates both HCDs, then adds them.

Doesn't usb_add_hcd() as it's first task take care of the PHYs?
I'm hoping to remove that part completely from xhci-plat.c but haven't
looked into it properly yet.

usb_add_hcd() does

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_USB_PHY) && !hcd->usb_phy) {
struct usb_phy *phy = usb_get_phy_dev(hcd->self.controller, 0);
...
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_GENERIC_PHY) && !hcd->phy) {
struct phy *phy = phy_get(hcd->self.controller, "usb");
...

but xhci-plat.c does
hcd->usb_phy = devm_usb_get_phy_by_phandle(&pdev->dev, "usb-phy", 0);


So there needs to be some alignment.
