Add phy clock enable code to phy_power_on/off callbacks, and

Changes since v1:
- staticized ufs_qcom_phy_enable(/disable)_ref_clk(),
- staticized ufs_qcom_phy_enable(/disable)_iface_clk()
- removed function declaration and export symbol for these APIs.

Now that you are moving these ref clk enable/disable to phy_power_on/off and
these phy_power_on/off are called only in runtime suspend/resume (3 seconds
after last UFS access).
Goal is to disable the phy reference clock during aggressive gating (10ms
from last UFS access) so shouldn't we call the phy_power_on/off from these
setup_clocks() function as well?


So setup_clocks() is called for aggressive clock gating as well ?
If that's the case then yes, we may need to call. But we should try to
understand here. The phy_power_off turns off all the clocks - reflclk,
and other interface clocks. Do we want all of them to be turned off ?

Yes, we want to turn off the ref clock (& other clocks) during aggressive gating.


phy_power_off will also turn off the PHY. Do we want all this for aggressive
clock gating ?

Yes, PHY rails can be powered off both during the aggressive clk gating and runtime suspend. But as the regulator on/off latencies could be higher (especially for the shared rail), we were turning them off doing it in runtime suspend only (via phy_power_off()).
Now that phy_power_on/off is managing both clocks and regulators, and we will really want to turn off the ref clocks during clock gating, there is no option but to call phy_power_on/off during aggressive gating.
