Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
New issues:
- [High] State desynchronization on `rk_udphy_init` failure causes subsequent power-on retries to falsely return success without re-initializing the hardware, leading to dead PHY or bus hangs.
Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Subsystem power-off requests permanently leak `udphy->status` bits if the Type-C mode has physically changed, causing a perpetual resource leak of the PHY clocks.

phy: rockchip: usbdp: Do not lose USB3 PHY status
This commit fixes an issue where the USB3 tracking information is lost
when the DisplayPort is re-initialized. It does this by preventing the
status variable from being cleared during mode changes in the PHY driver.

[Severity: High]
If rk_udphy_init() fails (for example, returning -EPROBE_DEFER after a lock
timeout), will this lead to a permanent state desynchronization?
By removing the clearing of udphy->status, if the initialization fails,
udphy->mode_change is already set to false but udphy->status remains
non-zero.
If the subsystem later retries rk_udphy_power_on(), it will see
udphy->status != UDPHY_MODE_NONE and udphy->mode_change == false. Could
this cause it to bypass all initialization, blindly update the status, and
falsely return success while the PHY hardware remains disabled and in reset?
[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but removing the forced clearing of
udphy->status here exposes a potential permanent resource leak of the PHY
clocks.
Looking at rk_udphy_power_off():
if (!(udphy->mode & mode)) {
dev_info(udphy->dev, "mode 0x%02x is not support\n", mode);
return;
}
and rk_udphy_usb3_phy_exit():
if (!(udphy->mode & UDPHY_MODE_USB) || udphy->hs)
return 0;
If the Type-C multiplexer switches from DP_USB to a DP_ONLY mode,
udphy->mode loses the USB bit. If the USB controller then unbinds and calls
phy_exit() while in DP_ONLY mode, the early returns above prevent clearing
the UDPHY_MODE_USB bit from udphy->status.
When DP eventually powers off, will udphy->status remain non-zero due to
this orphaned USB bit, preventing rk_udphy_disable() from ever executing
and leaking the PHY clocks and power?
