So we sorted out how to describe USB devices in DT, but now we don't
use it? I know this is similar to what was done for MMC, but I really
don't like it.

Just put all these properties into the device nodes. The parent can
then scan for children and handle the power sequencing with generic
code. I think it is safe to assume that if these properties are
present, they need to be handled for device detection. We may still
need something device specific to handle some devices at some point,
but that is true either way.
