I missed that. I will do this change in the next patch version.

We are only relying on the controller version to be less (or greater) than a specific version
and we are not using exact "numerical" value. Refer drivers/usb/host/ehci-fsl.c .
In addition, the enum entries defined are specific to controller version i.e 1.6, 2.2, 2.4 and 2.5.
In future if anyone needs to add an entry; supposedly 2.6; he would do so as per the 
sequence maintained.
