As per the update from HW team,

"SYS_USB_PWRRDY and SYS_PCIE_RST_RSM_B are used when transition from ALL_ON to AWO (or from AWO to ALL_ON).

Refer to step 8,9 in Table 41.10 Example Transition Flow Outline from ALL_ON Mode to AWO Mode.
Refer to step 9,10 in Table 41.11 Example Transition Flow Outline from AWO Mode to ALL_ON Mode.

When turning off USB PHY and PCIe PHY, if they are not controlled, PHY may break."

Do you have any plan to control this power transitions(ALL_ON to AWO and vice versa) in linux? 

Cheers,
Biju
