Right, my fault. I missed that. of_find_property(intf->dev.of_node, 
"compatible", NULL) is the correct check.

True, but frankly I have no idea how to fix this in a better way.

Exynos EHCI/OHCI bindings predates the generic USB device bindings and 
now we can only mitigate the damage caused by this conflict.
