Hi,

This adds remove_phy flag to the HCD structure. If the flag is
set and if hcd->phy is valid, the phy is shutdown and released
whenever usb_add_hcd fails or usb_hcd_remove is called.
This can be used by the HCD drivers to auto-remove
the external USB phy when it is no longer needed.

why do you need the flag at all ? If hcd->phy is valid, just casll
usb_phy_shutdown() followed by usb_put_phy(). Did you find any issues
with that ?


I haven't been able to test it with other platforms.
However, some drivers use devm_usb_get_phy_dev() and we may face refcounter issues
if we call usb_put_phy unconditionally.
Adding this flag seems safe enough and we doesn't affect other drivers.

Thanks,
Val.
