We discussed before that the otg is not related to phy.
The struct usb_otg is better allocated at the otg driver, not phy driver.

I have a look at other phy drivers(drivers/usb/phy), now, there
is no one to create struct usb_otg at their phy drivers. To solve this
problem, we may need to modify ulpi phy driver.

To integrate ULPI phy, we may need to do:
- Make ulpi as a platform driver
- Override otg.set_host, and otg.set_vbus with ulpi's at
otg_ulpi_create or what else.
- Call otg_ulpi_create at the end of ci13xxx_imx_probe (before
pm_runtime_no_callbacks) if the phy is ulpi.
