You can't really compare a bus like i2c, which can't enumerate devices
natively, to ULPI which can.

What exactly are we breaking here? The USB on BYT-CR does not work yet
with the mainline kernel, or does it? To enable it, I already
suggested the BYT quirk (attached again).

I don't think the other boards we have which use TUSB1210, like the
BYT-I ones and I think some Merrifield based boards, expect any less
from PM efficiency then BYT-CR, but we don't need to do any tricks
with them in order to use ULPI bus. That is what I mean when I say
this is BYT-CR specific problem.

I don't agree with PM arguments if it means that we should be ready to
accept loosing possibility for a generic solution in OS with a single
device like our PHY. I seriously doubt it would prevent the products
using these boards of achieving their PM requirements. But this
conversation is outside our topic.

Well, I'm really not expecting any BIOS updates any more. I assumed
that was clear. Why else would I have started the whole planning of
the GPIO forwarding. But if it wasn't, then sorry. Now you know.

BYT-CR's USB is not supported in mainline yet unless I'm completely
mistaken, but we have the plan for it. Instead of trying to take any
shortcuts, let's follow that plan.

Because of the need to write to the ULPI registers, I don't think we
should try anything else except to use ULPI bus straight away. We'll
start by making use of ULPI bus possible by adding the quirk for BYT
(attached), which to me is perfectly OK solution. I would appreciate
if you gave it a review.

Then we'll pass the GPIO to the PHY driver in the same quirk once we
have the support for it in gpiolib.


Thanks,
