This is very good to hear, I'm really interested to see this development :)

The Device Tree code for MXS is not ripe yet. We still miss a lot in there. 
Flipping this usb stuff to DT should be easy, I see no point disallowing this 
(and that stands also for the MXS SPI actually) into kernel so more people can 
test it only because you'd like this to wait for who knows how long for the DT 
support to arrive. Don't take it personally, but I still believe it's too early 
to enforce DT on MXS.
