Yes, I verified this using
https://git.codelinaro.org/stephan.gerhold/linux/-/commit/45d5add498612387f88270ca944ee16e2236fddd
(I sent this to Abel back then, so I'm surprised he didn't run that :-))

I can drop it I guess, but pinctrl is applied before the driver takes
control of the GPIO. This means if the GPIO happens to be in input mode
before the driver loads (with pull up or pull down), then we would
briefly leave it floating when applying the bias-disable.
Or I guess we could drop the bias-disable, since it shouldn't be
relevant for a pin we keep in output mode all the time?

I think there are two separate questions here:
1. Should we (or do we even need to) enable unused PHYs?
2. Do we need to power off unused PHYs left enabled by the firmware?
For (1), I'm not not sure if there is a technical reason that requires
us to. And given that PHYs typically consume quite a bit of power, I'm
not sure if we should. Perhaps it's not worth spending effort on this
minor optimization now, but then the device tree would ideally still
tell us which PHYs are actually used (for future optimizations).
For (2), yes, we probably need to. But my impression so far is that this
might be a larger problem that we need to handle on the SoC level. I
have seen some firmware versions that blindly power up all USB
controllers, even completely unused ones. Ideally we would power down
unused components during startup and then leave them off.
Thanks,
Stephan
