Unfortunately, this patch is necessary for the following patches as it introduces
the necessary fwnode. Generally, yes, I had to find the minimum set of changes,
not to modify too much the USB core code. I opted for complete backport
of the upstream patches, not to chop them off and also not to add much code on
top of them (only some minor checkpatch fixes). I think it is better not to increase
the delta between linux-cip and upstream too much.

But, looking retrospectively, this might not be the best strategy.
