Yes, BeagleBoard is a good example. Long story short: we have external
dependency and the correct way to handle that is via deferred probe.

As of now we are not ready to kill the legacy support but over time we should
move as much as we can to DT only mode.

The BeagleBoard works because the bootloader happen to enable the PWM
generator which is used as a GPIO for the external HUB enable port. As soon as
the bootloader stops doing this we are going to be in trouble.
