Any suggestions on how to move further?
Chipidea controller provides ulpi view port register for accessing the
usb phy registers. Now we want to add new driver for ulpi phy configuration
and that obviously it need of ulpi view port register access. So, sharing the
register space between these two drivers is necessary here.
