Unfortunately I was unable to utilize this library to solve Odroid U3
usb3503/lan9730 power sequence (as a continuation of my old series [0][1]).

The main problem is that power sequence instance (pwrseq_generic.c) is
not a device. I don't get why it is not a device. It would be rather
intuitive to me to make it a device. Also it would make life easier
because you could use all device-like consumer APIs (of getting clocks,
GPIOs etc). Since it is not a device, it is not possible to use
regulator consumer API.

I need a regulator because I need to toggle the power.

Other encountered issue is that power sequence happens early, before the
unused regulators are turned off by the system. However maybe this is
the necessity from other point of view.

My case is annoyingly over-complicated so I am slowly getting sertain
that it is not generic. Anyway it looks like this:

EHCI controller
     |
     |--HSIC0--lan9730 (reset is done only through regulator)
     |--HSIC1--usb3504 (it has a reset GPIO... but it is toggled by
                        usb3504 driver)

Overall, I want to reset the lan9730. This can be done only through
power - buck8. buck8 state is an logical OR of register set by I2C and
GPIO. Thus to turn it off, it is not sufficient just to set register to
0x0 because the GPIO is keeping it on. The best way is to switch the
buck8 to gpio-enable-control thus only GPIO will be toggling it... still
through the regulator consumer API (because it is an GPIO for the
regulator, not for the reset!).

However these two seems coupled. On invalid reset sequence, both chips
die. The usb3504 has its own existing reset sequence and my findings
show that it should happen after lan9730 reset sequence. Otherwise all
devices might be lost...
