Right, and that's what we intend to fix.
Exynos5250 dwc3 is not in the need of both usb2_phy and usb3_phy.
In fact usb3_phy handle (which is served by phy-samsung-usb3 driver)
sets up the UTMI+ as well as PIPE3 phy on DWC3.
I know this looks different from the usual OMAP style of phy for dwc3.

Hi Sylwester,
  any suggestions here ? As contained in the exynos5250 user manual
too, there's only one block of PHY handling both UTMI+ and PIPE3
interfaces, and the set of registers (same base address) also indicate
one block of PHY. So we have the usb3_phy (phy-samsung-usb3 driver)
which setup the entire PHY require for DWC3 operation, and thereby we
__shouldn't__ need usb2_phy (phy-samsung-usb2 driver which actually
setup the PHY for a separate USB 2.0 controller on exynos5250) for
DWC3.

ehci-s5p and ohci-exynos are not using devm_usb_get_phy_by_phandle()
api until now, so they don't need to have the PHY handlers in their
node.
