doesn't look like the correct way to do this. What if enabling that
quirk on hosts which don't have the quirk cause problems ?

I would suggest adding a platform_data which (in our case) dwc3 will
pass to xhci-plat. Then you can do proper revision detection of the
synopsys controller and set the quirk only on the failing hosts.

BTW, do you have the STARS number for this errata ?
