rk3288 has usb host0 ohci controller but doesn't actually work
on real hardware but it works with new revision chip rk3288w.
So, disable ohci for rk3288.
For rk3288w chips the compatible update code is handled by bootloader.

This seems unnecessary to me - if we've even started probing a driver
for a broken piece of hardware to the point that we need magic checks to
bail out again, then something is already fundamentally wrong.
Old boards only sold with the original SoC variant have no reason to
enable the OHCI (since it never worked originally), thus will never
execute this check.
New boards designed around the W variant to make use of the OHCI can
freely enable it either way.
The only relative-edge-case where it might matter is older board designs
still in production which have shipped with both SoC variants. Enabling
OHCI can't be *necessary* given that it's still broken on a lot of
deployed boards, so at best it must be an opportunistic nice-to-have.
Since we're already having to rely on the bootloader to patch up the
devicetree for other low-level differences in this case, it should be
part of that responsibility for it to only enable the OHCI on the
appropriate SoC variant too. Statically enabling it in the DTS for a
board where it may well not work is just bad.
As soon as a DTB with a broken piece of hardware enabled gets passed to
an OS, then the damage is already done. A driver patch in a future
version of Linux that magically knows better and ignores it isn't going
to help a user booting an older kernel image, or some other OS entirely.
