looks like it was caused because of this commit:

    usb: hcd: Initialize USB phy if needed
    
    This adds external USB phy support to USB HCD driver that
    allows to find and initialize external USB phy, bound to
    the HCD, when the HCD is added.
    The usb_add_hcd function returns -EPROBE_DEFER if the USB
    phy, bound to the HCD, is not ready.
    If no USB phy is bound, the HCD is initialized as usual.

usb_get_phy_device() will pr_err() when a PHY isn't found. Looks like
that should be pr_debug() since everything still works even without a
PHY.
