Well I'm assumign the system may boot/resume with the wells powered
down. And we definitely don't have the cri/ref clocks set up at this
point. So if they're needed to complete the resets the PHY may get stuck
or something. Also it just ungates everything at once, if the wells need
some ordering in bringup we have just messed things up here.

The timing diagrams do show some kind of relationship between the
cri/ref clocks and the reset signals getting deasserted.

My theory here is that the cmn and/or side reset needs to propagate to
the data lanes to propery initialize them. If the lanes are powered down
when the reset occurs things go bad.

And looks like the "Dynamic Power Gating" section in the phy cspec
pretty much says as much. That is you need to fully reset the entire
phy if you want to ungate even one of the blocks.

So based on that I think pretty much everything I said is needed to make
stuff work correctly. Also I think currently we power gate the TX blocks
whenever the port gets disabled. If we want to keep doing that, we need
to adjust valleyview_modeset_global_resources() to fully reset the phy
whenever previously power down wells need to be brought up. The
alternative would be to model the entire PHY as a single power well,
which would definitely be the simpler option.
