Thanks, the patch worked and all the EHCI devices are enumerated. There
are other issues like no output to the LCD and I don't have a FB_OMAP2
option, so trying to rebuild with FB_OMAP=y. The configuration setup
seems to be very particular and easily upset by certain changes. I guess
the right patches have to be installed or build failures result.

Lowlevel video output switch controls (VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL) [N/m/y/?] n
E-Ink Broadsheet/Epson S1D13521 controller support (FB_BROADSHEET)
[N/m/y/?] n
OMAP frame buffer support (EXPERIMENTAL) (FB_OMAP) [Y/n/m/?] y
External LCD controller support (FB_OMAP_LCDC_EXTERNAL) [N/y/?] (NEW)
MIPI DBI-C/DCS compatible LCD support (FB_OMAP_LCD_MIPID) [N/y/?] (NEW)
Check bootloader initialization (FB_OMAP_BOOTLOADER_INIT) [N/y/?] (NEW)
Consistent DMA memory size (MB) (FB_OMAP_CONSISTENT_DMA_SIZE) [2] (NEW)
