Okay. I will add proper description. The DP phy is shared with usb and executing the
dp phy_init before the usb phy_init was causing usb devices to not function.

Earlier, enabling phy_init was done when the EV_HPD_INIT_SETUP event was executed.
So, we had scheduled it to execute after 10 second to let the usb driver complete the phy_init first.

Kuogee made the below change to move the DP phy_init to execute after the DP is connected
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-msm/patch/1642531648-8448-2-git-send-email-quic_khsieh@xxxxxxxxxxx/

So, there is no need for the DP driver to wait 10 seconds for the phy initialization anymore.

eDP PHY is not shared with usb. So, it can be programmed anytime, hence not needing any delay.
