Okay, so you're saying that if the DP driver invokes phy_power_on()
before the USB driver does, USB initialization fails (or at least USB
doesn't work)?

Sounds like something we need to work out in the QMP phy driver. Do you
have any more details about what's going wrong.


Also, I've seen various references to said "Apple dongle", do you have a
link to the exact one you're testing with so I can pick one up for
testing purposes as well?
