right, but both APIs should be supported with *two* PHYs for the time being.

I don't know, ask the author :-) Maybe the PHY driver was already
available on the USB PHY layer ? What we should do is push that PHY
driver to be moved over to generic PHY layer, then we can get rid of USB
PHY layer from xhci-plat.

First the PHY driver(s) depending on that should be converted over.
