I have tested this driver and the firmware driver booting directly
from the VideoCore bootloader (no uboot).
The mailbox driver loads too late to turn on USB power:

[    4.272027] bcm2835-mbox 2000b880.mailbox: mailbox enabled


When I move mailbox module init to arch_initcall, USB power is turned on.

[    0.548481] bcm2835-mbox 2000b880.mailbox: mailbox enabled

[    1.733669] raspberrypi_firmware_set_power  *** I have added this

This silences the warning:

    .base = {
        .power_on_latency_ns = 600000000,
