That will be bad for power. The phy configure code will need to know if the phy is enabled and then only put in the vote when the phy is enabled, otherwise wait for enable to make the corner vote. Honestly I suspect the DP PHY is _not_ in the CX domain as CX is for digital logic. Probably the PLL is the hardware that has some minimum CX requirement, and that flows down into the various display clks like the link clk that actually clock the DP controller hardware. The mdss_gdsc probably gates CX for the display subsystem (mdss) so if we had proper corner aggregation logic we could indicate that mdss_gdsc is a child of the CX domain and then make requests from the DP driver for particular link frequencies on the mdss_gdsc and then have that bubble up to CX appropriately. I don't think any of that sort of code is in place though, right?
