OK then it should be modelled as such.

How is this done in Linux?

You can add a quirk in the PCI controller and then XHCI can check its
parent's platdata to see the flag, perhaps, since the parent will
always be UCLASS_PCI.

You can always add the device to the devicetree if needed, and then
you get a compatible string.
