Since commit 0d58280cf1e6 ("phy: Update PHY power control sequence") the

PCIe PHY, which includes the POWER_DOWN_CONTROL register in its PCS
initialisation table, may possibly require a second update afterwards.

To make things worse, the POWER_DOWN_CONTROL register lies at a
different offset on more recent SoCs so that the second update, which
still used a hard-coded offset, would write to an unrelated register
(e.g. a revision-id register on SC8280XP).

As the MSM8996 PCIe PHY is now handled by a separate driver, simply drop
the bogus register update.

Fixes: e4d8b05ad5f9 ("phy: qcom-qmp: Use proper PWRDOWN offset for sm8150 USB") added support

I'm not sure about the particular fixes tag. Backporting from the split driver into old qmp driver would be a complete pain.

After digging some more, I stumbled upon the commit 0d58280cf1e6 ("phy: Update PHY power control sequence"), which puts explicit register write here, telling that 'PCIe PHYs need an extra power control before deasserts reset state'.

I can confirm this with the register tables from downstream dtsi. E.g. consider sdm845-pcie.dts, pcie0 table. The PCS_POWER_DOWN_CONTROL is the register 0x804.

The programmings starts with <0x804 0x1 0x0>, writing 1 to PCS_POWER_DOWN_CONTROL (which if I'm not mistaken we do not do at this moment). Then after writing all the serdes/tx/rx/pcs/pcs_misc tables comes the write <0x804 0x3 0x0> (which you are trying to remove here).

Same sequence applies to the PCIe PHY on msm8998.

Most newer PHYs have the expected sequence (of writing 0x3 to PCS_POWER_DOWN_CONTROL) before writing all registers.

As a short summary: unless we get any additional information that 8998 and sdm845 tables are incorrect, I'd suggest adding a conditional here (ugh) and using it here and in qmp_pcie_init() call.

Vinod, Bjorn, do you have any additional info?
