Ah! Sorry for missing that. Thanks for the pointer, though I may get
away with dropping this one.

Ok. It *seems* like I can get it working with the existing binding
then. There's a little funkiness with the core expecting three clocks
while I only have two (currently I'm duplicating the "bus_early" clk
for "suspend". Is there a preferred way to do this sort of hack?), and
I'm a little worried that only the first reset is being used (instead
of the 4 specified), but it seems to work so far.

I still suspect the dwc3-of-simple.c method might be better since it
can handle arbitrary sets of clks and resets instead of the fixed 3 &
1 in the dwc3.txt binding.
But if I can get away without having to add an extra binding here, I'd
be happier.
