Isn't the snps,dwc3.yaml document supposed to document dwc3's view of
the world? In that case, dwc3 expects 2 power domains. It just so
happens that in rk3399 they are fed from the same power supply, but
dwc3' still thinks there are two of them. No?

It's a similar situation when you have multiple clock domains with the
same parent clock.
