I dislike how we now need to provide a list of all pins in the header
file, where previously we used strings for this. This could become very
ugly if the set of pins changes in future generations of this IP block.

Could we instead derive this from the pinmux nodes? For example you have
this in the example below:

	usb3p0 {
		nvidia,lanes = "pcie-0";
		...
	};

Perhaps what we need is to either key off the node name or add another
property, such as:

	nvidia,usb3-port = <0>;

This would match the nvidia,usb2-port property that you've added below.

I'd leave away the -num suffix since it is implied that it's a number.

It would be useful for these to provide a range of valid values. I also
see that there are other registers that contain values for tuning. I
take it that the ones you've included here are the only ones that need
to be overridden on hardware you've tested this on? That should be fine,
we can always add new ones if necessary.

The wording is confusing here in my opinion. Maybe better: "Only the ...
property applies."?

I assume that hsic-* properties also only apply to the hsic-* pins?
That's not clear from the above sentence.
