Which known "broken patch still went upstream" ?

The problem commits were 208466dc10083e734a8af71d10f923ee4bff950c ("usb: 
otg: OMAP4430: Powerdown the internal PHY when USB is disabled") and 
fb91cde49c327ff957c55d91805bc6abda59b311 ("usb: musb: OMAP4430: Power down 
the PHY during board init").  The above link makes this clear.
