Hi Philipp,
Thanks for your review!

Since we removed the pm_runtime_put() call from the rzv2h_usb2phy_reset_probe() function,
and power management remains enabled for the entire lifetime of the driver, we also need
to remove rzv2h_usbphy_assert_helper() from rzv2h_usb2phy_reset_probe()

Additionally, when testing the unbind/bind USB2.0 chain, this causes an OOPS on my side.

I’ll mention this in the next version.

Thanks & Regards,
Tommaso
