The ultimate goal is to remove the old phy driver. Unfortunately
this has to be synced with the new USB3 phy driver by Vivek Gautam. I think
he
is also close to completion. What about this case? In the end the old driver
will be removed and no longer be supported. Having backward compatibility in
mind, it is possible to have the old and the new phy driver together in one
kernel release. But do we want to have two drivers doing the same thing at
the same time?
Best wishes,
