It's not for passing compliance tests, it is necessary to do the compliance 
tests. Without this patch only gen 1 speed is possible to test. Also i.mx6 is 
not fully gen2 compliant (withour external clk) we should have the option to 
do gen2 tests. Switching from gen1 to gen2 is done with a 100MHz (1ms) clk 
pulse on the receiver. Without this patch link speed is forced to gen1 
afterwards.
Yes it is only useful for board setup, it is comparable to 
CONFIG_USB_EHSET_TEST_FIXTURE for usb (ok, this is more general and not host 
specific).
