Yes that's important, but...

Why does this driver need it? In fact, you don't want this driver to
bind to the dwc3 node as we're binding to the 'snps,dwc3' driver.

Given the above, you might think we should remove this, but we can't
since there are old dtb's with the dwc3 child node.

Presumably you are getting lucky here (with link order). The kernel
has no logic to decide which driver to bind to if there are 2 matching
drivers. If we did, it would probably be the opposite of what you want
here as we'd pick the most specific match. This driver should probably
bail probe if no dwc3 child node.
