Hi Thierry, Hi Rob, Hi Kishon, Please let me know your thoughts of the below implementation. 1. Add a "bool disable_gen2" to "phy->attrs" structure. 2. In _of_phy_get() of phy-core.c to add the follow to parse a generic property. phy->attrs.disable_gen2 = of_property_read_bool(args.np, "usb-disable-gen2"); 3. In individual phy driver, to add SOC/PHY specific programming accordingly.
