1. DW APB SSI driver, defined in drivers/spi/spi-dw.h:
#define DW_HSSI_102A                    0x3130322a
#define dw_spi_ip_is(_dws, _ip) ...
#define dw_spi_ver_is(_dws, _ip, _ver) ...
#define dw_spi_ver_is_ge(_dws, _ip, _ver) ...

2. DWC USB3 driver, defined in drivers/usb/dwc3/core.h
#define DWC3_IP                 0x5533
#define DWC31_IP                0x3331
#define DWC32_IP                0x3332
#define DWC3_REVISION_173A      0x5533173a
#define DWC3_REVISION_175A      0x5533175a
...
#define DWC31_REVISION_110A     0x3131302a
#define DWC31_REVISION_120A     0x3132302a
...
#define DWC3_IP_IS(_ip) ...
#define DWC3_VER_IS(_ip, _ver) ...
#define DWC3_VER_IS_PRIOR(_ip, _ver) ...
#define DWC3_VER_IS_WITHIN(_ip, _from, _to) ...
#define DWC3_VER_TYPE_IS_WITHIN(_ip, _ver, _from, _to) ...

Regarding the STMMAC (DW MAC/GMAC/xGMAC) driver. I've harried up to
claim it has the native IP-core versioning support. The current kernel
driver doesn't have it. Instead I have it implemented in my local
repo, but it isn't ready to be submitted yet. I need some more time to
finish my DW GMAC/xGMAC work first.

Ideally we could have created a common interface for all the drivers.
I thought about it first when I was initially creating the patchsets.
But now I don't time left for this at all. The review process's taken
way much more time than I had/planned to spend for the PCIe-patches.
So what I can do at this stage is to provide minor fixes if required.
