Looks like you have different opinions on this solution, so I 'd like to have all opens
get settled here to help me find a acceptable solution for both of you.
Please let me explain more about this:
1. This feature (configure cache type) is natively from DWC3 IP (we can find it from data book),
not a SoC specific feature (more details please see v1 discussion: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/851306/)
2. However, in most SoC, the HW default setting looks fine (no need driver help), but some case
(like Layerscape) might need driver to do some programming to fix USB no detect issue.
That's why I implement this patch.
3. For now, Rob think this should be handled by SoC specific code rather than adding a property to
control it (by DWC3 core driver). And Felipe prefer to avoid using glue diver. So I am not sure how
to meet this requirements at the same time.
Any further suggestion are really appreciated. Thank you.

Ran
