The code assumes that omap2430_musb_enable() and
omap2430_musb_disable() is called in a balanced way. The
That fact is broken by the fact that musb_init_controller()
calls musb_platform_disable() to switch from unknown state to
off state.
OK, some spelling issues with the above paragraph though :)

That means that phy_power_off() is called first so that
phy->power_count gets -1 and the phy is not enabled on
phy_power_on(). In the probably common case of using the
phy_twl4030, that prevents also charging the battery and so
makes further kernel debugging hard.
Is this with v4.7 kernel? Also, care to describe how you hit this
and on which hardware? Just wondering..
I got this error on the Openphoenux GTA04 phone. It has a DM3730
SoC and a TPS65950 companion. Severe charging problems were already
observed with the 4.4rc1. I do not know if that already was exactly
*this* problem. I have debugged and patched the v4.7 kernel.
OK thanks for the info.

How I hit the problem: Just boot an that device and try to charge
via usb.
OK so it's the twl4030 charger then I guess.
yes, besides from causing usb gadget problems, it has side effect
towards the twl4030 charger.
quoted
Should I resubmit the patch with an extended commit message?
Well yeah it might be worth describing that it's the twl4030
charger that otherwise does not work properly.
Ok, will resend a better commit message.
