FWIW, I've just looked at the other glue drivers that already
exist:

- zevio can just get merged into the common driver, all that seems
  to be needed for that is the additional compatible string, and
  keying off the ci_default_zevio_platdata on the .data field of
  the of_device_id table.

- msm has a custom notifier, which justifies leaving it in a separate
  driver, but it's also small enough that it wouldn't hurt to have
  that merged into the main driver too.

- imx requires a lot of other things, in particular the dependency
  on the usbmisc driver means we don't want to have that in the
  core anyway, so we can't really merge that in.

- the proposed ar933x driver again looks almost trivial, so no reason
  for a separate glue driver for that.
