Thanks!

Could you also have a look at "[4/5] usb: host: xhci-plat:
Create platform device for onboard hubs in probe()"
(https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1425453/)? It's a
relatively short patch that creates the platform device for
the driver from xhci-plat as you suggested in the v4
discussion.

Greg, are there any more concerns from your side?
