I'm assuming you're talking about the scenario where it jumps into
ufs_qcom_power_up_sequence() - you have a label in there called
`out_disable_phy` - add a phy_power_off() after phy_calibrate if
things fail and you should be good to go if I'm reading things right.

Please include something resembling a call stack in the commit message,
as currently everyone reviewing this has to make guesses about why this
needs to be done


> Recently, this issue was addressed with patch 7bac65687510 ("scsi: ufs:

However, I still want to maintain a reference count (ref_cnt) to safeguard against similar conditions in the code. Additionally, this approach helps avoid unnecessary phy_power_on and phy_power_off calls. Please let me know your thoughts.

These unnecessary calls only amount to a couple of jumps and compares,
just like your wrappers, as the framework keeps track of the enable
count as well
