For now I just build this for bcma and ssb based SoCs. Yes there are
some drivers which could be replaced with this one, but most (all ??) of
them do something special in the device probing and this have to be
moved to somewhere else e.g. where the platform device is created.
I could rename it so it would not be generic any more, but I think it is
the wrong approach. ;-)
I am not able and do not have the time to convert all EHCI platform
drivers, where it is possible to this generic platform driver, as I do
not have the devices to test this and time is limited.
If someone else wants to improve something on these "generic" platform
drivers to make them work with an other device I am totally fine with it.

Thanks for the info, this is changed.
