I don't think we actually build-depend on the PHY driver from the
ChipIdea driver. In the past, we've refrained from modelling runtime
dependencies using Kconfig because in some cases (such as this) it'll
include more than necessary (ChipIdea will automatically pull in the
USB PHY driver irrespective of whether or not Tegra is enabled).
