Adam,

No, the regulator patch did 'not' resolve the issue created by syncing
the imx8mm dt (I caused confusion by responding to the wrong thread -
the regulator patch resolved a different issue).

Could you please verify my results on a board that uses both usbotg1
and usbotg2? What I see is on master + this imx8mm dt sync
(specifically the changes from Linux commit 4585c79ff477f ("arm64:
dts: imx8mm: correct usb power domains")) the board hangs on usb start
when bringing up usbotg2.

Best Regards,

Tim
