Is there any benefit to removing the other ports?
i.e. are ports 1-3 not parked properly by the dwc3 driver if
they're never connected to anything?
Hi Konrad,
Whether or not the phy is connected to a port, the controller would modify the GUSB2PHYCFG/GUSB3PIPECTL registers. But if we don't specify only one phy and let phys from base DTSI take effect (4 HS / 2 SS), we would end up initializing and powering on phy's which are never connected to a port. To avoid that we need to specify only one phy for this platform.
And does that have any major effect on power use?
Do these PHYs not have some dormant/low power mode?
Hi Konrad,
I believe there will be some minimal power use. IMO its best to keep
only one phy enabled for this variant instead of giving all and
initializing/powering-on all 4 of them.
