Since 0e37f94fbe1b ("phy: stm32: sync with upstream"), the phy-stm32-usbphyc now
has no poweron/poweroff callbacks, so a revert seems to only slightly change
timing. I'd suggest you dig some more.

The case was that barebox calls poweron/init in a different order than Linux.
This point is moot now though because poweron is no longer provided by the
driver.

Ahmad
