Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 3 potential issue(s) to consider:

New issues:
- [High] Incorrect status register polling in qmp_v8_configure_dp_phy() causes DP PHY lock (BIT 1) to go unverified.
- [High] The patch completely removes VCO divider programming from qmp_v8_configure_dp_clocks(), contradicting the commit message and leaving the hardware unconfigured.

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] The return value of cfg->configure_dp_phy() is silently ignored, leading to an invalid state transition on failure.

phy: qualcomm: qmp-combo: Rework DP PHY runtime configuration

This commit refactors the DP PHY runtime configuration by extracting common
initialization sequences, defining new hardware-specific AUX_CFG2 values,
and modifying the clock and PHY configurations for qmp_v8.

> - Modifying qmp_v8_configure_dp_clocks() to add VCO divider programming

[Severity: High]
Does this commit message accurately reflect the changes? The text says VCO
divider programming is being added, but the patch completely removes the
VCO divider programming from qmp_v8_configure_dp_clocks(), leaving the
hardware unconfigured for different link rates.

[Severity: High]
Is the deletion of this write intentional? The patch removes the write to
QPHY_DP_PHY_VCO_DIV entirely, which contradicts the commit message and will
result in the clocks not being correctly configured on V8 hardware.

[Severity: High]
Does this code mistakenly poll QPHY_COM_CMN_STATUS for BIT(1) instead of
checking QPHY_DP_PHY_STATUS?

It appears the DP PHY lock check is being completely bypassed by checking
the wrong register, duplicating the polling already done earlier in
qmp_combo_configure_dp_phy_common(). This could cause the driver to proceed
assuming the DP PHY is locked when it isn't.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but there is a pre-existing
issue in qmp_combo_dp_power_on() regarding how these timeout errors are
handled:

drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-qmp-combo.c:qmp_combo_dp_power_on() {
    ...
    /* Configure link rate, swing, etc. */
    cfg->configure_dp_phy(qmp);

    qmp->dp_powered_on = true;

    mutex_unlock(&qmp->phy_mutex);

    return 0;
}

Should the return value of cfg->configure_dp_phy() be checked? If the DP
PHY fails to lock (like the -ETIMEDOUT cases introduced and modified by
this patch), the error is discarded. The driver then sets
qmp->dp_powered_on = true and reports success to the framework, allowing
upper layers to interact with a malfunctioning hardware state.
