This patch does not belong to phy, so, doesn't need to
add phy in subject, meanwhile, please add GregKH as TO list,
he is the right one to queue this patch.

NAK, make sure there are no such dependencies with your controller
driver. They should know how to defer probing if their resources aren't
available yet.

Sorry for the confusion,
There is no dependencies at all, just for optimization.
Peter already told me this patch should not be put here, causing confusion.
And I resend in another thread.

The controller is dwc2, which use defer probe. And dwc2 controller defer 
probe every time even the phy driver in the same folder.
Since we know the calling sequence, we can simply change the sequence to 
load the phy earlier.


However, as you said the new driver will be put in drivers/phy, there 
should be no such issue in the future.
It is OK not using this patch.

Thanks

I NAKed it first.

But after thinking more, I think it is a good patch, USB PHY works proper
is the base for coming USB controller operation, with this patch,
it can avoid the controller drivers which are linked earlier than USB PHY
always being probed deferral, look at drivers/Makefile, it links drivers
follow the similar method.

Zhangfei, you may need to add more description in your commit log to prove
it is a good improvement.
