Currently, there is only one phy pointer (struct usb_phy  *transceiver)
per controller, so it can't know individual phy per port at multiple
ports controller situation.

It needs us consider phy_user's port number when design phy driver.
Any suggestions that how phy driver know its user's port number at phy's probe.

phy driver will load earlier than hcd driver, and at phy driver's 
probe, it will add itself to phy_list, it needs to know port number at that time.
