I agree with you. As far as EHCI_OMAP is concerned we're only interested
in configuring the PHY clocks and issuing a GPIO reset.
As of now because of dependency issues with GADGET, NOP_USB_XCEIV doesn't
seem to be the right place. I'm OK with using some other driver
that doesn't have such dependency, even if it breaks DT compatibility with
some OMAP boards. Or I'll just let EHCI_OMAP do it all by itself.
Unless Tony has any objections.
