This looks good and has already been applied, so no immediate action
required.
This is the only call to ks_pcie_enable_phy(), and these loops get and
put the PM references for the same PHYs initialized in
ks_pcie_enable_phy(), so it seems like maybe these loops could be
moved *into* ks_pcie_enable_phy().
Is there any similar issue in ks_pcie_disable_phy()? What if we
power-off a PHY that provides a reference clock to other PHYs that are
still powered-up? Will the dependent PHYs still power-off cleanly?
