Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Concurrent usage of PHY2 results in hardware malfunction because `phy2->reset` is requested as an exclusive reset control.
- [High] The clock and reset teardown order for `phy2` in `sun4i_usb_phy_exit()` is inverted and asymmetric with its initialization.

phy: allwinner: sun4i-usb: disable the PHY2 PMU clock after SIDDQ setup

This commit fixes a clock accounting imbalance by ensuring the same PHY2
clk2 that was enabled for auxiliary PMU access is correctly disabled,
rather than disabling the current PHY's clk2.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but since this patch deals with PHY2 resource
accounting, does the reset control for PHY2 also have a concurrent usage
issue?

In sun4i_usb_phy_probe(), the reset control is fetched exclusively:

sun4i_usb_phy_probe()
    ...
    phy->reset = devm_reset_control_get(dev, name);

Because it is an exclusive reset control, it does not maintain a reference
count for assertions. When multiple PHYs (like PHY0 and PHY1) independently
use PHY2, won't one PHY exiting unconditionally assert phy2->reset and
instantly break the other active PHYs?

sun4i_usb_phy_exit()
    ...
    reset_control_assert(phy2->reset);

[Severity: High]
This is also a pre-existing issue, but the clock and reset teardown order
for phy2 appears inverted in sun4i_usb_phy_exit() compared to how it is
safely initialized here in sun4i_usb_phy_init().

In sun4i_usb_phy_init(), phy2->clk is enabled before phy2->reset is
deasserted. However, in sun4i_usb_phy_exit(), the clock is disabled before
the reset is asserted:

sun4i_usb_phy_exit()
    ...
    clk_disable_unprepare(phy2->clk);
    reset_control_assert(phy2->reset);

Could asserting the reset on an unclocked hardware block leave the PHY2
block in an undefined or stuck state?
