On the whole this patch is good.

I don't know about this last phrase. When someone is running "make
menuconfig", for example, what shows up is the symbol's description,
not the symbol's name. That person would see "EHCI support for Marvell
on-chip controller", not "USB_EHCI_MV".
In fact, shouldn't the description for USB_EHCI_MV be changed too, to
make it more distinct from this one?
All the code changes are fine.
