So we can just add another property to the dt - let's call it "reset-hsic-gpio" - which then would get pulled down and up again after the phy has been initialized? The vbus property would be completely unaffected from this and indeed, we wouldn't have a vbus property on Arndale dts's then.

So even on non-Arndale boards, this should get the USB phy into a clean state regardless of where the bootloader left it, right?
