We got you covered. Look at dwc3's binding document and grep
drivers/usb/dwc3 for maximum_speed. You can pass your desired maximum
speed via platform_data or DT. Note that the driver will ignore that
maximum_speed argument if you're dealing with a known-broken of the IP
(also comments added in source code to describe the problem).
