This should allow using ohci-platform from devicetree in various cases.
Specifically after this commit it can be used for the ohci controller found
on Allwinner sunxi SoCs.

+Generic Platform OHCI controller
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible: Should be "platform-ohci"

To me, "platform-ohci" seems rather Linux-specific. Platform devices are
a Linux abstraction that don't correspond to any particular bus type in
reality.

We have some "*-generic" bindings. A name of that form might be more
appropriate. Or we could choose an arbitrary OHCI implementation's
vendor,ochi string and everything else can declare compatibility with
that.

With the ehci patch I'll go for your suggestion to simply keep
via,vt8500-ehci as compat string for it, without adding a new generic
name. So for ohci I'll also go with the first platform to use it and
thus "allwinner,sun4i-ohci"



+ - reg: Address range of the ohci registers.
+ - interrupts: Should contain the ohci interrupt.
+
+Optional properties:
+ - clocks: array of clocks
+ - clock-names: clock names "ahb" and/or "ohci"

A description of what the clocks are might be helpful.

How about something like:

- clocks: a list of phandle + clock specifier pairs, one for each entry
   in clock-names.

- clock-names: Should contain:
    * "ahb" - some description here.
    * "ohci" - some description here.

As Alan pointed out by asking "what is ahb" these
names are too platform specific (arm platform in this case),
for a generic driver. So I'm going to call them clk1, clk2 and
instead. It may seem a bit silly to use names at all in this
case, but having names makes things a lot easier
implementation wise.

Regards,

Hans
