One more comment - 5000M mode will also work with everything compiled as
modules (dwc3, exynos5 drd phy and xhci-plat) too. Just make sure that
xhci-plat is loaded before dwc3. This would require some manual
configuration, because autoloading will load xhci-plat after dwc3 probe
and switch to host mode.
