yes these overlay files are vendor specific and doesn't exist in
mainline. The upstream*dts were intended to "simulate" mainline
behavior, but unfortunately differ in this case.

As author of the mainline bcm283x-rpi-usb-otg.dtsi i was trying to
optimize the fifo sizes for EP 6 and 7. But i don't remember why. So my
suggestion for a fix would be:
g-tx-fifo-size = <256 256 256 512 512 768 768>;
But i'm also unsure about the values.
