Add support needed for the Renesas USB 3.0 controller

Is this a regression, or something that has always happened? If a
regression, any pointers to what commit caused this?
this really feels like a "new feature" addition to me, unless this used
to work properly.
It is not a regression. It is a crash that occurs on new hardware that
has this USB controller.
Without this patch series, hardware with this USB controller will fail
to work. So in the choice between "regression" and "new feature" I would
say "new feature".
Thanks,
