So it's now new with this patch, but it's more obvious with this
patch. It seems like "UFS/PCIE" is kinda broken w/ respect to how it
controls its clock. Specifically:

* If you init the PHY but don't power it on, then you "exit" the PHY:
you'll disable/unprepare "pipe_clk" even though you never
prepare/enabled it.

* If you init the PHY, power it on, power it off, power it on, and
exit the PHY: you'll leave the clock prepared one extra time.

Specifically I'd expect: for UFS/PCIE the disable/unprepare should be
symmetric with the enable/prepare and should be in "power off", not in
exit.

...or did I miss something?


Interestingly, your patch fixes this problem for USB3 (where init/exit
are now symmetric), but leaves the problem there for UFS/PCIE.
