Unfortunately that doesn't work (as Jerome found out) because both
PHYs are sharing the same reset line.
So if the second PHY would call device_reset then it would also reset
the first PHY!
There's a comment above the declaration of usb_reset_refcnt which
tries to explain this:
"The PHYs are sharing a common reset line -> we are only allowed to
reset once for all PHYs."
Maybe I should move this comment to the "if (usb_reset_refcnt++ == 0)
{" line to make it easier to see?

Martin
