Can't we make this a module?

You need to put more information here as to what "ULPI" means, and how
would anyone know if they have this type of thing attached to their USB
controller.

You need to help users / distros out in letting them know if they should
enable this or not.  As it is, I have no idea if I should even enable
this on my systems...
