I think DATA_RD  should be a macro, right? So, where I can put its define?
Create a dwc3.h in include/dt-bindings/usb/ ?

Another question about this remain open is: DWC3 data book's Table 6-5
Cache Type Bit Assignments show that bits definition will differ per
MBUS_TYPEs as below:
----------------------------------------------------------------                 
 MBUS_TYPE| bit[3]       |bit[2]       |bit[1]     |bit[0]                        
 ----------------------------------------------------------------                 
 AHB      |Cacheable     |Bufferable   |Privilegge |Data                          
 AXI3     |Write Allocate|Read Allocate|Cacheable  |Bufferable                    
 AXI4     |Allocate Other|Allocate     |Modifiable |Bufferable                    
 AXI4     |Other Allocate|Allocate     |Modifiable |Bufferable                    
 Native   |Same as AXI   |Same as AXI  |Same as AXI|Same as AXI                   
 ----------------------------------------------------------------                 
 Note: The AHB, AXI3, AXI4, and PCIe busses use different names for certain       
 signals, which have the same meaning:                                            
   Bufferable = Posted                                                            
   Cacheable = Modifiable = Snoop (negation of No Snoop)
 
For Layerscape SoCs, MBUS_TYPE is AXI3. So I am not sure how to use
snps,cache-type = <DATA_RD  "write allocate">, to cover all MBUS_TYPE?
(you can notice that AHB and AXI3's cacheable are on different bit)
Or I just need to handle AXI3 case?
