Commit 36914111e682 ("drivers: phy: add calibrate method") added support
for generic phy_calibrate() method, but it didn't explain in detail when
such method is supposed to be called. Add some more documentation directly
to the phy.h to make it clean that it is intended to be called after every
host controller reset.

This should be added in drivers/phy/phy-core.c before phy_calibrate()? We could
add a separate section in Documentation/phy.txt to document these phy_ops.

Thanks

Okay. Do you want to keep it also in phy.h (like for validate and 
configure)?

No. Adding in phy.txt and before phy_calibrate() should suffice IMO.

OKay, I will move it to phy.c. Generic PHYs documentation is converted 
to RST (Documentation/driver-api/phy/phy.rst), so it could simply 
include those comments from .c file. This can be done in separate patch.
