Accept which patch series?  You have posted several different versions 
(and you failed to put the version numbers in the email Subject: 
lines, so I can't tell which patches belong to which version!).

I am not going to accept something that does a partial job of 
converting ehci-fsl into a separate module.  Either do the entire 
conversion first, as a separate patch that is prerequisite to the OTG 
fix, or else fix the OTG stuff in a way that doesn't require ehci-fsl 
to be a separate module.
