We have a non-removable USB device on Fuji (AST2600) BMC and it can be
enumerated successfully (after applying the hack). Let me vist the lab
and plug a USB key to CMM (AST2500) BMC sometime next week. Will collect
results and send out email then.

Sorry for the confusion, Joel. I mean the device is enabled in
"ast2600-facebook-netbmc-common.dtsi" (patch #3 in the series). Do we
still need to set status to "okay" explicitly in platform dts (to avoid
confusion)?

&mac3 {
        status = "okay";
        phy-mode = "rgmii";
        pinctrl-names = "default";
        pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_rgmii4_default>;
};
