Don't prefer export symbols from PHY driver. That'll create unnecessary
dependencies between the controller and the PHY.
Agreed.
I think it'll be better to create a new attribute and use it?
Another simpler option is to not support _set_mode() for DA8xx, and the
phy driver set the otgmode bit in probe() based on dr_mode of the
controller.

This certainly works for my particular use case, however, Sergei
Shtylyov, who wrote the da8xx musb glue layer originally, seemed to
recall in his review of the patch series that this really is necessary
for OTG mode to work properly.
By the way, there is v3 of this patch series already, although this
patch is nearly the same.
