The point is to signal to the power domain the device is in that it can
power on/off.  These IP blocks are (re)used on many different SoCs, so
the driver should not make any assumptions about what power domain it is
in (if any.)

Or, for this USB IP block to be in a power domain that has memory
retention, in which case the power domain can still go off to save
power, but not lose context.

This is the way.

It may have no impact on the platform you are on, but it's very likely
to have an impact on other platforms with this same IP.
