Arnd, do you mean the following?

1. Implement Spear PCIe PHY driver using General PHY framework.
  ./drivers/phy/phy-spear13xx-pcie.c

2. Call General PHY APIs
  ./drivers/pci/host/pcie-spear13xx.c
  #include <linux/phy/phy.h>

  pp->phy = devm_phy_get(pp->dev, ...);

  phy_power_on(pp->phy);

  phy_power_off(pp->phy);
