Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 5 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] Leaked usb2_phy initialization on usb3_phy acquisition failure.
- [High] Leaked role switch and DRD resources on core role initialization failure.
- [High] Unbalanced pm_runtime_forbid() call permanently leaks the runtime PM usage counter across bind/unbind cycles.
- [High] Hardware PHY is powered off without calling synchronize_irq() during runtime suspend.
- [Medium] Exported PM helpers in glue.h lack static inline stubs for disabled PM configurations.

usb: cdns3: plat: Expose platform core driver as library
This commit splits the Cadence USB3 platform probe, remove, and PM paths into
exported core functions. It also adds a new header glue.h to document the
probe data structure and public entry points, allowing SoC glue code to
instantiate the core deterministically.

Further down in this function, if devm_phy_optional_get() for cdns->usb3_phy
fails (e.g. with -EPROBE_DEFER), it returns directly via dev_err_probe(),
bypassing the error cleanup path in err_phy3_init.
Does this leak the usb2_phy initialization since phy_exit(cdns->usb2_phy) is
never called?
If probe is deferred and retried, will this repeatedly increment the PHY's
init_count, preventing it from ever powering down?
Also in this function, after cdns_init(cdns) successfully registers resources
like a role switch, if cdns_core_init_role(cdns) fails, the error path
jumps to err_cdns_init:
err_cdns_init:
set_phy_power_off(cdns);
err_phy_power_on:
...
This error path only powers off the PHYs. Can this permanently leak the role
switch and DRD resources by omitting a call to cdns_remove(cdns) or
usb_role_switch_unregister()?
Towards the end of this function, pm_runtime_forbid(dev) is conditionally
called to increase the device's runtime PM usage count:
if (!(cdns->pdata && (cdns->pdata->quirks & CDNS3_DEFAULT_PM_RUNTIME_ALLOW)))
pm_runtime_forbid(dev);
Should there be a corresponding pm_runtime_allow(dev) in the remove path to
balance this count?

Since pm_runtime_forbid(dev) was called in the probe function, could the
absence of pm_runtime_allow(dev) here permanently leak the runtime PM usage
counter across bind/unbind cycles?
If the driver is repeatedly unbound and bound, will the usage counter
continuously increment, eventually preventing the device from entering a
runtime suspended state?

The controller uses shared IRQs, such as IRQF_SHARED for cdns->wakeup_irq.
The PM subsystem guidelines require drivers using shared IRQs to call
synchronize_irq() before powering down hardware.
Might calling set_phy_power_off(cdns) here before synchronize_irq() risk
hardware PHY being powered off while an interrupt handler is executing
concurrently on another CPU?

These functions are conditionally compiled in cdns3-plat.c depending on
CONFIG_PM and CONFIG_PM_SLEEP. However, they are unconditionally declared
here without empty static inline fallback stubs.
If a glue driver uses __maybe_unused annotations instead of #ifdef CONFIG_PM
for its own callbacks, will the compiler still attempt to resolve these calls
and produce undefined reference linker errors when PM is disabled?
