Makes sense. On the other hand, it also makes sense to apply
the DTS patches from this series, as those are the only things
pending for PCI/USB to work on those devices.

Afaikt, Kirin SoCs are designed for cell phones, with has just one
USB port. That's maybe the reason for such design.
Btw, this DT binding is used by both HiKey 960 and HiKey 970.
The HiKey960 board comes with just one port, which can either be
host or gadget. So, it seems to be an USB-compliant design on
such hardware.

Yeah, that's what I meant to say. One port with two endpoints.
I'll fix the description.
See, this is the properties used by the USB hub to work for HiKey 960:
usb-hub {
compatible = "hisilicon,usbhub";
typec-vbus-gpios = <&gpio25 2 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
otg-switch-gpios = <&gpio25 6 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
hub-vdd-supply = <&usb_hub_vdd>;
usb-role-switch;
port {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
hikey_usb_ep0: endpoint@0 {
reg = <0>;
remote-endpoint = <&dwc3_role_switch>;
};
hikey_usb_ep1: endpoint@1 {
reg = <1>;
remote-endpoint = <&rt1711h_ep>;
};
};
};

No, the hub driver was already merged.

Provided that everything was merged already, including the hub driver,
IMO the best would be to address the points you took on this patch
and apply them with your ack, via Wei's tree.
