Some SoCs have a single phy-hw-block with multiple phys, this is

Is it guaranteed that only one of them will be otg?

I guess not, but if there are 2 then with my patch we are of no worse
then today, we will then pick the first otg controller. Whereas
of_usb_get_dr_mode_by_phy currently is broken even on setups with
a shared phy dt-node and only 1 otg controller, which are quite
common.

I believe it is unlikely that there will be more then 1 otg controller,
so I believe that we should not worry about this until we actually
hit this problem.

were checking the first controller who uses a phy from the block and>> then end up looking for a dr_mode property in e.g. the ehci controller.

Instead of looking for nodes with a phy property, look for nodes
with a dr_mode property, so that we actually access the dr_mode property
in a node which has it.

Quote from Documentation/devicetree/bindings/usb/generic.txt:
"- dr_mode: ...
		In case this attribute isn't
		passed via DT, USB DRD controllers should default to
		OTG."

So it is not mandatory to define dr_mode in DT, then you wouldn't be
able to find the controller in such case.

If no controller is found then of_usb_get_dr_mode_by_phy will return
USB_DR_MODE_UNKNOWN, just like it does today for controller nodes which
do not set dr_mode.

So in this case my patch does not change anything.

Hans
