Yes. The way you handle the USB phys is totally inacceptable. Please
understand that there are *two* devices, one is the ehci core and the
other is the associated phy.

You need to register the phy as a platform device, the corresponding
driver then has to register the phy using some kind of usb_transceiver_register().
On the ehci side the mxc-ehci driver has to find its phy using
usb_get_transceiver().

Note that the infrastructure needed for this is not in the kernel, but
there are patches recently posted on linux-usb:
