it depends how it is used. Looks like it is used to decide whether to turn-off
regulators or not. Unless you plan to add low power support as part of
runtime-suspend of PHY during host mode, there is no reason to not turn-off
regulators on pm_suspend(). Please refer to my comments below.

dwc3 core calls phy_init() before power_on(). AFAIK, PHY regulators
need to be ON before initializing it.

I believe 'aggressive low power management' will be triggered on
pm_suspend?
And dwc3 core will in any case perform phy_exit()->phy_init() across
pm_suspend/resume which will reset PHYs. Hence, there is no need to check
for cable connected state here.

After you merge power_on() with phy_init() as per my previous comment,
you can rely on phy_exit() to take care of putting PHY in low power state
and turn off regulators as well.
