before getting rid of platform_data, we need to switch over to proper
frameworks for muxing, clock, etc. In case of EHCI, pinctrl migration is
currently under development by Keshava (in Cc). After that we need to
take a look at platform and see if there are any function pointers in
there, if there are, those need to be removed.

yeah, that function is actually wrong. First, that GPIO pin belongs to
the HUB driver, not the EHCI driver.

Second, those clocks belong to the PHY, not EHCI either. Before those
details are cleaned up, we will always have hacky solutions which will
break in one way or another.

When those cleanups are done, conversion to FDT is not a problem at all.
