Currently for dwc3 pci devices, we have glue drivers that create a
platform_device with specific properties to pass to the dwc3 core
driver. Without a ref clock property, we would need another way to pass
this information to the core driver or another way for the dwc3 core
driver to check for specific pci device's properties and quirks.
