The reset functionality was initially added for the TI USB8041, the binding has the reset, but I found it hasn't landed yet: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-usb/patch/20220727093801.687361-1-alexander.stein@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > In any case, I'm not convinced that your patch is correct.

As of now none of the supported hubs (there are only two of them) has an asymmetric delay. The RTS5411 doesn't have a reset line, and the TI USB8041 only specifies a power on delay (in my interpretation). [1] has some discussion between Alexander and me about this second reset. The patch that added the delay was merged before this discussion concluded. If the driver is going to support a hub that needs an additional reset delay when the hub is powered off I'm totally in favor of adding that delay, however that isn't currently the case in my understanding. If you draw a different conclusion from the TI USB8041 datasheet please let me know. [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-usb/patch/20220727141117.909361-1-alexander.stein@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
