The ref count + reset here looks like something that could/should be
handled in a runtime PM callback.
Unfortunately that doesn't work (as Jerome found out) because both
PHYs are sharing the same reset line.
So if the second PHY would call device_reset then it would also reset
the first PHY!

There's a comment above the declaration of usb_reset_refcnt which
tries to explain this:
"The PHYs are sharing a common reset line -> we are only allowed to
reset once for all PHYs."
Maybe I should move this comment to the "if (usb_reset_refcnt++ == 0)
{" line to make it easier to see?


pm-runtime has refcounting in it. When one of the nodes turns on,
the pm-runtime will call your driver to say there is a user when
this first use turns up.

If all the sub-phys turn off and drop their refcount then the driver
is called to say there are no more users and you can go to sleep.

So, in phy_meson_usb2_power_on() you could do:

pm_runtime_get_sync(pdev);

and in phy_meson_usb2_power_off

pm_runtime_put(pdev);
