If understand correctly the control module driver used to configure the respective usb phy of SoC to respective usb modes using the common set of control module APIs. What if, if control module interface (register defintions) varies b/w different revision or spin of same type of SoCs, if usbphy type is changed. In this case whether the single instance of control module driver is good enough to cater of all cpu types of same SoC series ?
Whether cpu_is_xxx() can be used to differentiate b/w different cpu types in CM driver?
