I see your patches and see that you have added a omap5 specific call to reset the device in the ehci-hcd.c.

I originally had a similar implementation in ehci-hcd but decided to move it up to the usb-hub.  http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/258229/

But I can move it back since the patch exists.

This make it all board specific because as you point out it is only needed in HSIC connection

Crazy question was there any support documentation for the OMAP5 HSIC issue?
