Would be nice to have both the USB and the MMC issues sorted
out in the mainline kernel naturally and get rid of any bootloader
dependencies.

I think the USB issue because usb_gadget_probe_driver() bails
out with -ENODEV before the USB controller is found. Felipe, got
any ideas how to fix this to work with -EPROBE_DEFER? Should this
get called only from the USB controller probe?
