That is still needed as PHY might take some time to generate pipe_clk
after its PLL is locked (or while initialization sequence is carried out).
Performing clk_enable will throw a warning. Hence, it is better to
have halt_check that will allow to club pipe_clk with other clocks and
enable it at the beginning of phy_init.

Yes.

This could be ok for DWC3 USB core driver which uses both phy_init and
power_on together on init/suspend.
But it looks like ufs-qcom and pcie-qcom (mainly ufs) handle power_on
and phy_init differently. They also reset core while running init/power_on.
Changing power_on/init could affect those cores.
Regarding power_management, I think we can just update ufc/pcie
qcom glue drivers to either use phy_init/exit for power_management.
Or PHY runtime_PM if client doesn't want to power_down or reset phy
during suspend/resume.
