I can see dwc3 seems to use the parent devicetree node to bind the glue
driver, right?

Upstream am33xx.dtsi does not have a devicetree parent node that we
could bind to. The parent is of type ti,sysc which is not USB specific.
The uboot am33xx.dtsi did have a devicetree parent that was USB specific
and it was used before to bind the USB glue. But with OF_UPSTREAM I
can't use that anymore.

This is why I developed this patch, to be able let bind() return
-ENODEV. lists_bind_fdt() will remain predictable. Most drivers do not
return -ENODEV and will not be influenced by this change.

Best
Markus
