Just to confirm: we no longer need to do this "BRANCH_HALT_DELAY" now
that we've figured everything out, right?

So basically if I'm understanding this correctly:

* Both USB and PCIE need the clk_enable() in qcom_qmp_phy_init()

* UFS doesn't even use a pipe clock (pipe_clk is NULL and thus these
calls are no-ops).

So that means the next version of this code will simply get rid of
qcom_qmp_phy_poweron() and we can now use the same phy_ops for both
everything again? That also makes everything symmetric and gets rid
of the possible imbalance of clock enable/disable, so I'm happy.


Actually: I'll also throw out a drastic idea here. Maybe instead of
having a NULL power_on/power_off, we should have a NULL init/exit.
Does anything break if all the stuff that happens today in
qcom_qmp_phy_com_init() happens at power_on() time instead of init()
time? I suggest this because:

* It sounds like init() is supposed to be for initialization that can
happen _before_ power on of the PHY.

* Any initialization that happens after the PHY has been powered on
seems expected to just be in the power_on() function after the
regulator was enabled.


Presumably moving this stuff to power_on could save you some power in
some cases (since the client of the PHY presumably turns power off to
the PHY with the idea of saving power).
