There is only one mx21 based hardware currently supported in the
kernel. It is arch/arm/mach-imx/mach-mx21ads.c.

mx21ads does not register the USB host driver, which makes imx21-hcd
to not have any user.

There have been some patches recently adding device tree support to
mx21. If someone in the future still gets interested in using USB on
mx21, then the chipidea driver could be used.

If you prefer, I can put this explanation in the commit log of the patch.

Thanks
