If probe fails after imx95_usb_phy_get_tca() succeeds, the typec
switch leaks because the only cleanup path was in .remove, which
never runs on probe failure.
Use devm_add_action_or_reset() so the switch is cleaned up on both
probe failure and driver removal. The .remove callback and
imx95_usb_phy_put_tca() are no longer needed.

phy: fsl-imx8mq-usb: fix typec switch leak on probe error path
This commit fixes a memory leak of the Type-C switch on the probe error
path by using devm_add_action_or_reset() for cleanup. This ensures the
switch is unregistered on both probe failure and driver removal.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this create a race condition
during probe?
When tca_blk_get_typec_switch() registers the Type-C switch, it becomes
exposed to the subsystem. If a consumer binds asynchronously in this narrow
window and invokes the .set callback, could it dereference imx_phy->tca
before it gets assigned back in imx8mq_usb_phy_probe()?
drivers/phy/freescale/phy-fsl-imx8mq-usb.c:tca_blk_typec_switch_set() {
struct imx8mq_usb_phy *imx_phy = typec_switch_get_drvdata(sw);
struct tca_blk *tca = imx_phy->tca;
...
if (tca->orientation == orientation)
...
}
Would it be safer to assign imx_phy->tca before registering the
Type-C switch?

[Severity: High]
This is also a pre-existing issue, but can this lead to a Use-After-Free
if the driver is manually unbound?
If the driver is unbound via sysfs, devres will automatically free the
imx_phy and tca structures since they were allocated with devm_kzalloc().
However, if typec_switch_unregister() doesn't revoke existing consumer
references, could a consumer subsequently call typec_switch_set() and
access the already freed imx_phy and tca structures?
drivers/phy/freescale/phy-fsl-imx8mq-usb.c:tca_blk_typec_switch_set() {
struct imx8mq_usb_phy *imx_phy = typec_switch_get_drvdata(sw);
struct tca_blk *tca = imx_phy->tca;
...
if (tca->orientation == orientation)
...

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Medium] The PHY device is marked as wakeup capable, but the driver lacks the necessary PM callbacks and interrupt handling to actually implement wakeup functionality, rendering the exposed sysfs entry non-functional.

phy: fsl-imx8mq-usb: set usb phy to be wakeup capable
This commit marks the i.MX8MQ USB PHY device as wakeup capable. This
advertises the capability to the PM core and exposes a power/wakeup sysfs
entry to userspace.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this regression expose a non-functional sysfs node to userspace?
The commit message notes that the PHY supports remote wakeup, but the
driver itself does not appear to implement any PM callbacks or interrupt
handling to actually process the wakeup or check device_may_wakeup(dev).
Because actual USB remote wakeup is typically managed by the parent USB
controller and its glue layer, which have their own functional wakeup
sysfs nodes, could this create a dead toggle in sysfs where userspace can
enable wakeup on the PHY device without any actual effect?

Add runtime PM to ensure the PHY is properly powered and clocked during
register access, preventing potential system hangs.
It guards register access in the following scenarios:
- PHY operations: init() and power_on/off() callbacks are guarded by
phy core
- Type-C orientation switching when PHY/Controller are suspended which
needs explicitly care
- Future PHY control port register regmap debugfs access

[Severity: High]
Does this mix of devm_clk_get_enabled() and manual clk_disable_unprepare()
cause a clock enable count underflow during driver unbind?
During imx8mq_usb_phy_probe(), devm_clk_get_enabled() registers devres actions
that will unconditionally call clk_disable_unprepare() upon driver removal.
When the driver is unbound, the driver core calls pm_runtime_put_sync() before
triggering devres cleanup. This suspends the device, invoking
imx8mq_usb_phy_runtime_suspend() which drops the clock enable counts to 0.
Subsequently, device_unbind_cleanup() executes the devres actions, calling
clk_disable_unprepare() again on the already-disabled clocks. In the clock
framework, checking an enable_count of 0 results in a kernel warning.
To avoid this, the driver could either handle clock initialization manually
without devm_*_enabled variants, or implement a .remove callback that
explicitly wakes the device via pm_runtime_get_sync() and disables runtime PM
to prevent devres from executing on a suspended device.

The CR port is a simple 16-bit data/address parallel port that is
accessed through 32-bit MMIO registers for on-chip access to the
control registers inside the USB 3.0 femtoPHY. Add control register
regmap and export these registers by debugfs to help PHY's diagnostic.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
New issues:
- [Medium] Writes to the CR debugfs control registers are silently discarded without error if the PHY is runtime suspended.
Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Clock reference count underflow on driver unbind due to devm_clk_get_enabled() and Runtime PM.

[Severity: Medium]
Does this regmap configuration need a .cache_type?
Without one, it defaults to REGCACHE_NONE. Later in the patch,
imx8mq_usb_phy_runtime_suspend() puts the regmap into cache-only mode.
With REGCACHE_NONE, any debugfs writes while suspended will return success,
but the data is silently discarded because there is no cache backing it.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can this lead to a clock enable_count
underflow on driver unbind?
The driver acquires the clock using devm_clk_get_enabled() in
imx8mq_usb_phy_probe(), meaning devm manages the enable state. However, it
manually disables the clock here during runtime suspend.
If the driver is unbound while the device is in the runtime suspended state,
the devm cleanup function will call clk_disable_unprepare() a second time on
the already disabled clock, since there is no .remove callback to resume the
device first.

[Severity: Medium]
Should there be a regcache_sync() call here after disabling cache-only mode?
If a valid cache type is added to imx_cr_regmap_config, the cache will need
to be synchronized here to flush any pending diagnostic writes to the hardware
that occurred while the device was suspended.

From: Xu Yang <xu.yang_2@nxp.com>
On i.MX8MP, the USB PHY has a dedicated power domain that was previously
never powered off at runtime. With the introduction of runtime PM support,
the power domain will be powered off if the device is runtime suspended,
which breaks USB wakeup functionality.
To preserve wakeup functionality, mark the PHY power domain as runtime
always-on for i.MX8MP platform. To limit the behavior to i.MX8MP, add a
new imx95_usb_phy_ops for i.MX95 and introduce usb_phy_is_imx8mp() helper
to identify i.MX8MP PHY instance.
