Please use of_property_read_bool for these.
This driver already handles "via,vt8500-ehci" and "wm,prizm-ehci" which
aren't documented to handle these properties, but now gain support for
them. It might be worth unifying the binding documents if there's
nothing special about those two host controllers.
We seem to have two binding documents for "via,vt8500-ehci", so some
cleanup is definitely in order.
Tony, you seem to have written both documents judging by 95e9fd10f06c
and 8ad551d150e3. Do you have any issue with merging both of these into
a common usb-ehci document?

As this is being dropped into a generic driver, it would be nice to have
a comment explaining why we need to do this -- not everyone using this
will know the powerpc history. It certainly seems odd to look for
another node in the tree that this driver isn't necessarily handling,
and that should probably be explained.
As this bit of fixup is only needed for powerpc, it would be nice to not
have to do it elsewhere. Perhaps these could be factored out into a
ppc_platform_reset function that could be empty stub for other
architectures.

Likewise.

Nit: comment code style (should have a newline after the /* according to
Documentation/CodingStyle).

As with the earlier comment, this looks a bit odd. A comment explaining
why we're looking for another node would help. Also, we should only need
this for powerpc.
Cheers,
Mark.
