NEVER DO THAT from inside controller drivers.

(If the code isn't specific to the msm silicon, and works on
other vendors' implementations too, it'd misbehave anyway.

Those calls are for gadget drivers, e.g. to embed knowledge about
controller issues which can't be detected by looking at
what's advertised by the gadget controller device.  Using them isn't
encouraged.


Controller drivers should see what hardware they're talking to by
actually talking to the chip  and detecting any quirks (be they
revision-specific or otherwise).  In some cases platform_data will
be the way to package such information.
