FWIW, the address map for XUSB looks like this:
XUSB_HOST: 0x70090000 - 0x7009a000
xHCI registers: 0x70090000 - 0x70098000
FPCI configuration registers: 0x70098000 - 0x70099000
IPFS configuration registers: 0x70099000 - 0x7009a000

This still requires a small, separate driver to setup the regmap and
do of_platform_populate(). The only difference is it lives in
drivers/usb/ instead of drivers/mfd/.

I'm not too opposed to this, but Thierry was when I brought this up
before. The issue here is that if we ever have to do something
besides setting up a regmap in the MFD, we'd have to change the
binding and break DT backwards-compatibility.
Thanks,
