We are power mode changing to HS-G4 with no-G4 PHY settings programmed, 
the power mode change operation, in the 1st init, may immediately cause 
UIC errors and lead to probe fail. We are not seeing issues as of now, 
maybe because the amount of HW used for testing is not large enough.

This change is not really related to this specific series, I can remove 
it in next version.

Thanks,
Can Guo.
