There is another thing we can do albeit in the driver (see patch).
Not sure how the USB maintainer will feel about it but I think this
has the advantage of not creating any hacky interfaces. And it
leaves me with the hope that someone will find the time to convert
to phy driver based on syscon at some point.

Thanks,
