Agreed.  Host controllers that fail to implement the required internal
regulator configured via bits 1-3 of the Power Control Register may
still follow the specification with regard to bit zero of that same
register.  The driver should be updated to configure bit zero
appropriately even when an external regulator is used.

If you like, I can propose a patch or if you have one ready, I will be
happy to review yours.

Thanks,
