I think so! The DT bindings proposed by you looked good for this device.

The only question is how to handle the PHY hardware in a sane way. The
PHY is the central problematic point so to say, since it ties these
PCI USB2.0 devices together with USBHS and for some SoCs USB 3.0 as
well.

I'm thinking of something along these lines:

1) To use DT to describe the full hardware topology
2) Enable all or some device drivers in the kernel configuration
3) Have a sane default but use the bind interface to reassign
driver-to-port configuration.

What is your intended use case?

Thanks,
