Why ? Do we need to add an entry for every platform in there ? Besides,
it probably should be the SoC name not the platform here....

Why not simply a generic compatible "usb-ehci" ? It's a standard
programming interface, there are no specific quirks, we shouldn't
need to have to add new entries to the driver like that for every
new SoC/platform.
