In power_off  we are turning off PCIe PHY-specific clocks, and also 
resetting the PHY due to this PCIe link
also will go down. To retain, the PCIe link state in l1ss with PHY 
clocks turned off, we need
park PCIe PHY in the power-down state and skip the resets of the PHY so 
that it can maintain the link state in l1ss
with the help of the always-on power domain aka MX).

To support this PHY Power-down state PHY driver has been updated with 
new interface APIs.

Initially we added phy_suspend & phy_resume to phy but as this API's are 
already used by drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c we are getting compilation 
errors.

So we used these power_down & power up.

As power_off & power_down is confusing we will change new api's 
power_down & power_up to phy_pm_suspend & phy_pm_resume in

the next patch series.
