Heh, the whole 83xx/usb.c file is board(s) specific, not this particular
fix. :-/

So it doesn't need an explicit comment for this addition. It's just lucky
coincedence that all previous boards were using same (or similar) setup.
That is, it's perfectly possible that some custom MPC831XE board will use
USB setup different from MPC8313E-RDB or MPC8315E-RDB, and the whole thing
will break again. The same applies for MPC837X part of usb.c. There are
board-specific settings all over the place.
