I don't your update as noted in the v3 change (ie. Greg's suggestions).

I'm not sure if you saw my previous response. I wanted to check to see
if we need to do soft-reset once before ulpi init as part of its
initialization.

I'm just curious why Andrey Smirnov test doesn't require this change. If
it's a quirk for this specific configuration, then the change here is
fine. If it's required for all ULPI setup, then we can unconditionally
do that for all ULPI setup during initialization.
