Thanks.

No, I say keep it as is. For now I'll assume this is not a reset, but
some other interface signal that just happens to be routed out to the
SRC and just happens to be toggled around the same time in the enable
sequence.

Is there any downstream code that already handles these resets? At least
for the USB PHYs I'd expect there has to be something we could look at.
