I'm not entirely sure that USB_TEGRA_PHY isn't useful because initially (in V1)
I proposed to do the other way around, to select PHY when ehci-tegra / chipidea
drivers are enabled. But that proposal wasn't very successful [0][1]. Yes, it
means that ehci-tegra could be built without the tegra-phy.

The USB_ULPI option isn't needed for compiling ehci-tegra, but for tegra-phy
driver. I've moved that option to the tegra-phy's Kconfig, see the previous
patch in the series ("Add Kconfig entry for Tegra PHY driver").

USB_ULPI_VIEWPORT is selected by USB_ULPI, so we don't need to duplicate the
selection. See drivers/usb/phy/Kconfig.
