Your line of reasoning is correct regarding the TEST_WRITE async strobe
register, and there's a picture of the flow in Section 17.5.3
(PCIe PHY Configuration) of the RK3399 TRM, Part 2.

I'll make sure to be more clear in the commit message.

Regarding PHY_CFG_RD_MASK, yes, it is unused AFAICT and can be removed.
It's leftover from BSP where the debugging function phy_rd_cfg exists.

Thanks,
