Most probably you've hit the issue described in [1].
In general, if pci-dra7xx is consumer of  PIPE3 PHY device and 
PIPE3 PHY device is child of OCP2SCP then suspend/resume order should be
- pci-dra7xx
- PIPE3 PHY
- OCP2SCP
 and resume
- OCP2SCP
- PIPE3 PHY
- pci-dra7xx
and in this case  pm_runtime_force_x() might work.

Hence, approach [1] was not accepted (personally I still like it) and
"Functional dependencies tracking support" was introduced instead by commit 9ed9895 [2]
you can try it.

But, as per code, I'm not sure that Functional dependencies properly tracked in 
pm_runtime_force_x() functions.

PS: you can try to reorder device's nodes in DT and place PCI node after "ocp2scp" :P
