That's pretty nasty.  Integrating that with the standard EHCI driver 
would be considerably more difficult.

Why was the FUSBH200 designed in this strange way?  Why doesn't it use 
the standard EHCI register layout?  Were the engineers at Faraday 
deliberately trying to make life harder for driver writers?

They are used only if the hardware supports them, that is, only if the
ehci->has_hostpc flag is set.
