Yes that is correct now, this para need to go.

Yes with this version I get the warning:
make[4]: Circular drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci.o <- drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci.o dependency dropped.

I don't speak enough Kbuild, but I guess it does make sense that we have
xhci-pci.o as target for both xhci-pci.o xhci-pci-renesas.o! That was
the reason for adding usb tag to this to resolve the conflict.

I am okay for any other mechanism which can work well here. Btw what
issues do you foresee with adding usb tag to module name.
