however, as I mentioned before, the core shouldn't have to know that
it's running on an AMD platform. We already support several different
platforms (OMAP5, AM437x, DRA7xx, Exynos5, Exynos7, Qcom, Merrifield,
Baytrail, Braswell, HAPS PCIe, and STiH407) and none of them get their
$my_awesome_platform flag in dwc3, why should AMD be any different ?

This is the only part of $subject that I cannot accept because it would
mean we would be giving AMD a special treatment when there shouldn't be
any, for anybody.
