Thanks, so the HUB's physical port number is the same with its logical port
number which reported at its descriptor? If we assumed all HUBs follow it,
then we can use port number to align the devices which we described at
DT and detected by USB bus.
If the host controller has DT supported, and there are two ports connects
two different onboard devices. When the device is found by the bus,
we will know its portnum and parent (see usb_alloc_dev), and we know parent's
device node, so we will know two children node by iterate its parent,
and match its port number
(property "reg" at below dts node) with udev->portnum we assigned at
usb_alloc_dev.
Then we can let the device know DT.
After USB device knows DT, it can handle DT properties at its driver.
