There is more to be confused about -- you don't get the host/device connection
interrupt from the PHY, but you dig one of them from the EHCI host and the other
from the EHCI host too -- which is pretty messed up already.
We can certainly use IRQF_SHARED to trap some of the interrupts in the PHY code,
but that's still quite weird.
