OK fine, but ehci-omap is a weird case as it needs a slightly different
sequence as to when PHY is initialized depending on which mode it is. (Transceiver
or transceiver-less). please see this fix.

All I'm saying as that ehci-omap needs a way to tell hcd core that it needs PHY
handling for itself.
