Hi Johan and Vinod, I modified the Realtek phy to solve this issue and only use the generic PHY. And submitted these patches today as follows https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20231107063518.27824-1-stanley_chang@xxxxxxxxxxx/ https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20231107063518.27824-2-stanley_chang@xxxxxxxxxxx/ https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20231107063518.27824-3-stanley_chang@xxxxxxxxxxx/ https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/20231107063518.27824-4-stanley_chang@xxxxxxxxxxx/ I don't think this patch is needed to revert a08799cf17c2 ("usb:phy: New usb phy notification port status API").
