Ok, that's the new behavior that PHCD brings to us, It shouldn't a big deal if we
take care of the wakeup bits before PHCD, right? The spec may be modified if
PHCD become a normal feature to EHCI, just like why we have EHCI1.1 addendum
spec. (We have some ehci1.1 addendum patches that will submit soon, but the
PHCD is not in EHCI1.1 addendum currently)

This is doable. It is confirmed by the HW designer, before accessing PORTSC, just
Clear PHCD. But we still need additional 5ms for the second time PHCD setting to
ensure it enter phy low power mode.

That should be ok. For Moorestown, the controller should always enable remote
wakeup, so that won't impact us.
