What exactly does the USB charge pump control do here?  Is it purely
controlling the power supplied to USB (I'm assuming that this is the PXA
USB controller and that the DA903x is so closely tied to it nobody would
use it with another CPU)?  I'm guessing it's a bit more than that and
there's also control over the current that can be drawn from USB by the
system as well as that supplied.
