Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] usb: remove some unused code

This series deletes some Qualcomm USB code is no longer needed by
any Qualcomm hardware.  A separate series deletes the Kconfig
options that enable building this code from the ARM64 defconfig.

With these drivers, host and gadget mode were implemented separately
for the same hardware, which is inherently racy and broken.  These
drivers have not really been needed since Stephen Boyd reworked the
ChipIdea driver to support these platforms.

v3: - rebased, and expanded the above description; no functional change
v2: - delete sections of Kconfig files that control whether the deleted
      code gets built

  usb: host: remove ehci-msm.c
