Extend dwc2 binding with an optional utmi phy width property.
Enable the s3c-hsotg.c driver to use standard dwc2 binding
and enable configuration of the UTMI phy width based on the
property.

isn't this available in any of the configuration registers ?

Yes and no. HWCFG4 has a UTMI data width field. However, it has 3
valid states, "8", "16", or "8 or 16". The BCM281xx implementation is
set to the latter and the attached phy is 8-bit.

Looking at dwc2 prior to Matthijs Kooijman's patch [1] which starts
validating the value of phy_utmi_width in that driver, the pci.c
dwc2_module_params .phy_utmi_width field there even had the comment,
"/* 16 bits - NOT DETECTABLE */". The autodetect code in
dwc2_set_param_phy_utmi_width() will fail if HWCFG4 has the "8 or 16"
option as it just decides to default to a phy width of 16 if nothing
is configured by the platform glue. This property would also allow
this issue to be addressed in that driver.

fair enough, but I'd really like to hear from DT folks if your suggested
binding is acceptable. It seems like we can equally argue that it's a SW
configuration or HW description.

It's definitely a HW description - the width of the UTMI data connection.

But, which PHY is this? Does it have a register that could tell what
the data width is? The dwc2 core has an (optional) PHY Vendor Control
Register that allows reading the PHY registers.

This is the integrated PHY on the bcm28155 part (the entire
bcm281xx/11351 family shares it). My register doc doesn't show the
optional PHY vendor control register as being present in this dwc2
implementation. I'll track down with the design team if this is
accurate...but it appears we can't go that route.

The design team confirmed that we do not have any registers that can be accessed via the PHY Vendor Control Register. All PHY control registers are implemented in the MMIO control block which is supported in the PHY control driver later in this series.They also confirmed there's no other way to detect that it's an 8-bit data path.
