Afaik it is kind of a generic device tree binding, I guess the physical
device can have various appearances and properties...
A quick survey showed several device trees which do not specify
vcc-supply...
That said, I checked the device at hand, and it actually has a USB PHY
power supply inputs, but the device tree does not model them.

Despite the above findings, I still think it is the right thing to do as
long as we specify vcc-supply to be optional.
