I double-checked your patch in v3 and Philipp was right:
reset_control_rearm() should not be right after reset_control_reset().
However, I think reset_control_rearm() is still needed
phy_meson_gxl_usb2_init() whenever clk_prepare_enable() fails.

So my suggestion is to add reset_control_rearm() in
phy_meson_gxl_usb2_init() if clk_prepare_enable() fails so we are
resetting the ref-count for the reset line (just like
phy_meson_gxl_usb2_exit() does).
The difference compared to the previous version is that the
reset_control_rearm() call needs to be placed a few lines down.


Thank you!
