This is not sufficient. The nodes must also be added in the
corresponding .dtsi file. You should rather take 3.8-rcX and apply the
Armada 370/XP USB series posted by Ezequiel Garcia on January 15th.

Before attempting to mount anything, you should rather have a look at
the output of "lsusb" to see if at least devices are detected. Until
they are detected, it doesn't make sense to go further.

I remember we had some discussion with other developers of the Marvell
kernel community, and I think the conclusion was that there wasn't a
kernel driver for the Genesys Logic controller. But I haven't checked
again (and being at the moment in the train with a clumsy Internet
connection makes even a basic Google search impractical).

You need the Armada 370 datasheet, which for now, is only available
under NDA to selected companies and developers, if I'm correct.
However, as far as USB support on Armada 370 is concerned, the patch
series for Ezequiel Garcia that I mentioned earlier is sufficient.
Then, it is a matter of finding or writing a device driver for the
Genesys Logic USB device.
Hope this helps,
Thomas
