I executed a clone detection tool* on drivers source code and I found
that the files

drivers/usb/host/fusbh200-hcd.c

and

drivers/usb/host/fotg210-hcd.c

are very similar. The main difference between the two files are
replacing the string 'USBH20' by 'OTG21' and some white space fixes.
Some changes are being applied to only one of the files, such as the
commit f848a88d223cafa43cb318839a1171b498cf5ec8 that changes
fotg210-hcd.c but not fusbh200-hcd.c.

Should these files be consolidated? And if so how?

Thank you,

Peter
