Hi guys,

Kishon, sorry I did not see this v3 set.

Can you guys explain why is something like this needed? Like with
clocks and gpios, the device drivers shouldn't need to care any more
if the platform has the phys or not. -ENODEV tells you your platform
does not have them, so go ahead and continue when getting the phy.

I just tested removing the phy registering from dwc3-pci.c and all I
had to do was to add IS_ERR(<phy>) checks where the old usb phys were
used and everything worked fine?

What am I missing?

Br,
