The xhci driver relies on the existence of both a main and a shared hcd.
One hcd for handing USB 2 (and slower) and the other for USB 3 devices.

As one example xhci_run(hcd) needs to be called for both hcds, first call
sets up things, second one calls xhci_start() that makes the controller run.

It's probably possible to modify the driver to support xHCI hosts with only
USB 2 ports, but requires a lot more work.

Something like the above could of course not be accepted upstream. We can't break existing
functionality to support one modified xHCI.
