The notify connect is at device ready. But I want notify port status change before port reset.

In Realtek phy driver, we have designed to dynamically adjust disconnection level and calibrate phy parameters.
So we do this when the device connected bit changes and when the disconnected bit changes.
Port status change notification:
1. Check if portstatus is USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION and portchange is USB_PORT_STAT_C_CONNECTION.
  The device is connected, the driver lowers the disconnection level and calibrates the phy parameters.
2. The device disconnects, the driver increases the disconnect level and calibrates the phy parameters.

If we adjust the disconnection level in notify_connect , the disconnect may have been triggered at this stage. 
So we need to change that as early as possible.

It is possible.
If the controller not use usb-phy driver. It  is NULL.
