Currently every architecture has it's own very similar glue code for the EHCI driver which is bad. What is even worse is that we have multiple (I think 4) drivers for the gadget part of this chip. Some architectures support OTG, others not, but all of them have a different way to attach a USB phy to the EHCI core. We are on the road to device tree support which should give us a good opportunity to clean this up (We don't want to have device tree binding code in each platform driver we have now, right?) Given that Freescale is currently working hard on device tree support I think the effort is better spent in bringing the existing oftree driver in shape for use on ARM.
