If pci's firmware information can only get from dwc3-pci, I was wrong.
I am almost sure your patch covers all 3 cases. dwc3->sysdev covers
dwc3 core and gadget side, hcd->self.sysdev cover host side. The only
possible improvement may be how to detect pci device.

Yes, since there is a DT node for dwc3, and firmware information is there,
that's why the original patch (Grygorii Strashko's) can work.
