tps53676_identify() reads the USER_DATA_03 phase configuration to count
the phases assigned to each channel and derive the number of PMBus pages.
In each 16-bit phase descriptor the channel (PAGE) is encoded in bit 4 and
the firing order in bits 3:0, but the code tested bit 3 (0x08), which is
part of the firing-order field.

TPS53676 supports up to seven phases, so firing-order bit 3 is never set.
As a result the existing test classifies every enabled phase as channel A.
On a dual-channel configuration the phases assigned to channel B are
therefore miscounted as channel A and page 1 is not exposed.

Test the PAGE field (bit 4) instead.


tps53676_identify() has a second problem: It does not set the current page
to 0 for single-page systems. If the BIOS/ROMMON had selected page 1 for
some reason, the page register is never updated because pmbus_set_page()
does not set the page number if the number of pages is 1. Please fix that
as well.

Thanks,
Guenter
