Hello Paolo,

I have a guess of what is going on.
db820c has 3 PCIe controllers,
that shares a singe QMP block (that has clocks, regulators, and resets).
The QMP block has 3 PCIe PHYs, that have their own clocks and resets.

^^ here the phy_init() called from pcie-qcom.c
which ends up to a call to qcom_qmp_phy_enable()

which has this code:

        ret = qcom_qmp_phy_com_init(qphy);
        if (ret)
                return ret;

qcom_qmp_phy_com_init() has this code:

        if (qmp->init_count++) {
                mutex_unlock(&qmp->phy_mutex);
                return 0;
        }

qcom_qmp_phy_com_init() later fails,
since the common block init time out, so the qmp driver
disables clocks, asserts reset, and disables regulators

^^ here the first PCIe controller instance fails to probe

^^ here the second PCIe controller is probed.

it will call phy_init()

which will again call qcom_qmp_phy_enable() which will call
qcom_qmp_phy_com_init()

where this code:

        if (qmp->init_count++) {
                mutex_unlock(&qmp->phy_mutex);
                return 0;
        }

now will return 0,

so clocks will never be enabled, resets never deasserted, regulators
never enabled.

since qcom_qmp_phy_com_init() returns success in this case,
qcom_qmp_phy_enable() will try to continue with the init,
and writes to disabled hardware is usually not a good idea.

I think the proper fix for this is:

diff --git a/drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-qmp.c b/drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-qmp.c
