[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] Unconditional modification of shared IPQ806x HS PHY initialization introduces a hardware regression and contradicts the commit message.
- [Low] The PHY_PARAM_CTRL1_MASK macro is left as unused dead code.

phy: qcom-ipq806x-usb: support the MSM8974 SS PHY parameters

This commit adds platform data for the MSM8974 compatible in the IPQ806x USB
PHY driver. It modifies qcom_ipq806x_usb_ss_phy_init() to use dynamic SS PHY
parameters instead of hardcoding IPQ806x-specific values. This ensures the
correct launch amplitudes are used for MSM8974.

[Severity: High]
Does this code unconditionally apply the active-low clamp disable bit?

drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-ipq806x-usb.c:qcom_ipq806x_usb_hs_phy_init() {
	val = HSUSB_CTRL_DPSEHV_CLAMP | HSUSB_CTRL_DMSEHV_CLAMP |
		HSUSB_CTRL_RETENABLEN  | HSUSB_CTRL_COMMONONN |
		HSUSB_CTRL_OTGSESSVLD_CLAMP | HSUSB_CTRL_ID_HV_CLAMP |
		HSUSB_CTRL_UTMI_OTG_VBUS_VALID | HSUSB_CTRL_UTMI_CLK_EN |
		HSUSB_CTRL_CLAMP_EN | HSUSB_CLAMP_MPM_DPSE_DMSE_EN_N |
		phy_dwc3->drvdata->fsel;
    ...
	writel(val, phy_dwc3->base + HSUSB_PHY_CTRL_REG);
    ...
}

This completely overwrites the PHY_CTRL register for all platforms. Can this
introduce a hardware regression for older IPQ806x hardware by sending an
unintended active-low clamp-disable bit?

Also, does this contradict the commit message's claim that MSM8974 must not
overwrite the whole PHY_CTRL register?

Finally, are there redundant, duplicated bit definitions for BIT(26) in the
same file?

drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-ipq806x-usb.c {
    ...
#define HSUSB_CLAMP_MPM_DPSE_DMSE_EN_N	BIT(26)
    ...
}

[Severity: Low]
Is the PHY_PARAM_CTRL1_MASK macro left as unused dead code now that its usage
has been removed here?
