The phy_calibrate will rather be a one time phenomenon.
On exynos atleast the case is : the phy settings for PIPE3 phy on DWC3
controller need to be
configured post hcd reset. so that we don't need to re-configure these
phy settings on every connect.

Moreover *there are certain devices* which need these PHY settings
even to show a connect-status-change.
So, it would rather be not useful to create a 'phy_notify_connect' API
in drivers/phy/ and use the same for this purpose.
