Oh OK yeah makes sense as that's hwmod internal function. Then the driver
specific part should use just void __iomem *base and use readl/writel and
live under include/linux/platform_data/omap-usb.h.

Yeah probably.

OK good. That way we can separate the driver specific part from the bus
code. And the driver maintainers can review the driver specific part of the
idle/reset function. And maybe at some point we'll have device_reset and
device_idle functions and some generic framework in place for it..

Sounds good to me. Also sounds like that does not need changes to the
driver specific xyz_driver_reset functions.
