You are right. xhci_exynos_register_vendor_ops should be called by other
module. It's only thing not called anywhere in this patchset. I don't uses
xhci-exynos alone in my scenario. Other module loads this on runtime.

I got it. Let me add them. Is it still necessary if it is only used by
other module on runtime as I said above?
