You may be able to set up the control module register with one
of the following Linux standard frameworks:

1. Fixed regulator defined in mach-omap2/control.c

   In this case the PHY driver can pick up the regulator by name.

2. A mux mapped with pinctrl framework using pinctrl-single,bits
   binding

   And in this case the PHY driver can request the named pinctrl
   states like "enabled" and "disabled".

The comments also apply to the omap_usb2.c driver for
0x4a002300 above.

And register 0x4a002370 here. Care to post some info what the
0x4a002370 register bits do? Is that same as CONTROL_DEV_CONF
on omap4, or does it have other bits there too?

The advantage for using regulator fwk and pinctrl fwk is
that the regulator and mux can be children of the SCM
core driver when we have it. And no direct register tinkering
or omap specific custom exported functions are needed ;)

Tony
