OK, but do we think the current driver has only code which is being used by
some user?
At least I can see current driver has some features which is not being used
by any current driver.  

I will leave this call up-to the maintainers.
IMO, This being an DWC H/W IP feature, for me it makes sense to have it in
DWC controller driver as long as it does not break any existing
functionality, irrespective of actual user is present or not.
