 Will correct the commit message.

Is it fine to have "brcm,iproc-udc"?
iProc refers to a Broadcom family of processors that includes
above mentioned SoCs.

I see there are some compatible strings that are based on the IP,
and some based on the SoCs. I chose to have the IP based string.
Please let me know which one would be agreeable in this case.

I will also correct the typo in the above notes -- it meant to be
UDCs integrated into Broadcom's Northstar2 and Cygnus SoC's.

Yes, this is different IP. DWC2 is HS OTG.

Currently we can't get the extcon node from Phy.
"extcon_get_edev_by_phandle" requires "extcon" property, else would fail.
As Scott said in one of the comments, we can drop this when we get that
support in kernel. Is it fine?

Thanks,
Ravi
