Add support for ohci-platform instantiation from devicetree, including
optionally getting clks and a phy from devicetree, and enabling / disabling
those on power_on / off.

This should allow using ohci-platform from devicetree in various cases.
Specifically after this commit it can be used for the ohci controller found
on Allwinner sunxi SoCs.

+Generic MMIO OHCI controller

    OHCI controller always uses MMIO, and likewise EHCI. You don't need to
specifically mention it.

Right, I'm only using it here because it is also used in the compatible string.

   Please drop it.

+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "mmio-ohci"

    Likewise, it's not a good name. Why not call it "platform-ohci"?

Because, as you would have known had you read the entire thread, people objected
against exactly that name because the "platform" bus thing is a Linux invention,
and other operating systems don't use the platform nomenclature for non pci
busses.

I wonder where were all those people when "xhci-platform" compatible got adopted in drivers/usb/host/xhci-plat.c? :-P

Anyway, I want to suggest "usb-[eo]hci" of which "usb-ehci" binding has even already documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/usb/usb-ehci.txt. Both these "compatible" values are used as backups in the multiple described bindings of the platform-specific [EO]HCI controllers. I really don't see why you should invent anything new (and so poorly named).

Regards,

Hans
