Hi Vevek, Tomasz

Long time no see.

I asked USB S/W engineer and USB H/W engineer.

There are two USB3.0 on Exynos5420; thus there are two sclks
such as 'sclk_usbphy300 and sclk_usbphy301'.

As Tomasz mentioned, 'sclk_usbphy300 and sclk_usbphy301' can
be used instead of 'xusbxti' as reference of USB 3.0 PHY.

However, on Exynos5420, "ONLY" 'sclk_usbphy300' can be used
for USB2.0 pico phy. (so, '301' CANNOT support USB2.0 pico phy.)

Best regards,
Jingoo Han
