In the case of Renesas R-Car hardware we know that there are generations of
SoCs, e.g. Gen 2 and Gen 3. But beyond that its not clear what the
relationship between IP blocks might be. For example, I believe that
r8a7790 is older than r8a7791 but that doesn't imply that the latter is a
descendant of the former or vice versa.
We can, however, by examining the documentation and behaviour of the
hardware at run-time observe that the current driver implementation appears
to be compatible with the IP blocks on SoCs within a given generation.
For the above reasons and convenience when enabling new SoCs a
per-generation fallback compatibility string scheme being adopted for
drivers for Renesas SoCs.

This PHY, though formally being a part of Renesas USBHS controller, contains the
UGCTRL2 register that controls multiplexing of the USB ports (Renesas calls them
channels) to the different USB controllers: channel 0 can be connected to either
PCI EHCI/OHCI or USBHS controllers, channel 2 can be connected to PCI EHCI/OHCI
or xHCI controllers.
This is a new driver for this USB PHY currently already supported under drivers/
usb/phy/. The reason for writing the new driver was the requirement that the
multiplexing of USB channels to the controller be dynamic, depending on what
USB drivers are loaded, rather than static as provided by the old driver. The
infrastructure provided by drivers/phy/phy-core.c seems to fit that purpose
ideally. The new driver only supports device tree probing for now.
