Interesting, so it's back on omap4 for some legacy compability reasons
i guess. It's not mentioned for omap3 at all, but maybe it's lurking
around there somewhere too.

Looking at the omap4 TRM, looks like there are two instances of OHCI:
The HS OHCI/EHCI controller, and the legacy FS OHCI only controller.
The legacy one is using separate transceiver pins (usbc1_*) from the
HS OHCI/EHCI controller pins (usbb[12]_*).

As the OHCI registers are standard, I'd assume it would be possible
to make the FS USB instance to work with the mach-omap2/usb-host.c
and drivers/usb/host/ohci-omap3.c driver. So it should still be OK
to remove the code in this series.

I doubt that anybody would want to use the legacy FS OHCI controller
instead of the HS OHCI/EHCI controller though.. If somebody
is actually using the legacy controller at usbc1_* pins, please
respond.
