Not as a flag. Create 4 properties for GSBUSCFG0.DATRDREQINFO,
DESRDREQINFO, DATWRREQINFO, and DESWRREQINFO in your glue driver. Pass
them through your software node as PROPERTY_ENTRY_U16. The core will
override the default coreConsultant value of GSBUSCFG0 based on these
properties in dwc3_get_properties().

Check drivers/usb/dwc3/host.c for reference.

Hi Rob/Krzysztof,

Just want to check in with you for your opinion. To summarize my
suggestion to Pandey, here are the key notes:
* Platform specific settings are set in glue drivers (match through
  compatible string)
* These settings are set by controller registers that should only
  be accessible in the dwc3 core
* So, the suggestion is to pass these settings as properties using
  software_node created from the glue driver to the dwc3 core
* These properties will not be documented in the devicetree binding, but
  only in the driver

We're already doing that to some properties such as
"linux,sysdev_is_parent"

If this suggestion makes sense, would the prefix "linux," for linux
specific binding or "snps," is a better fit?

Thanks,
Thinh
