The problem with this is that if those numbers ever change on a future
generation of Tegra then we're going to have to suffix them in some way
to support more than one generation. And the code to handle that is
going to be ugly because we'd need to differentiate on the compatible
string to match which suffixed version to use.

So I'd rather see this parameterized some way. Of course that's a lot
more difficult to do because these things are shared across XHCI and pad
controller drivers.

That said, I think it'd be fine to merge this as-is for now and rewrite
this in a better way if it ever becomes a problem.
