This changes the behaviour of the driver.

This makes dw_hdmi_phy_disable() power down a gen2 phy.

The iMX6 has a DW_HDMI_PHY_DWC_HDMI_3D_TX_PHY phy, which you list as a
gen2 phy.  I've been carrying this change for a while, which I've had
to revert (and finally expunge), as it causes problems on iMX6:

        dw_hdmi_phy_enable_tmds(hdmi, 0);
        dw_hdmi_phy_enable_powerdown(hdmi, true);

So, I think your change here will cause problems for iMX6.

bouncing when the PHY is powered down.  I can't promise when I'll be
able to check for that again.
