Yes, it works nicely, just make sure you disable the second USB port:

&usbotg2 {
	status = "disabled";
};

&usbmisc2 {
	status = "disabled";
};

&usbphynop2 {
	status = "disabled";
};

Which brings me to another question:
How do we deal with the i.MX 7Solo base device tree?

Currently there is imx7d.dtsi, which is basically the main device tree.
I feel ideally we should make a imx7s.dtsi as the base device tree
(since i.MX7S has a subset of features) and include that from
imx7d.dtsi...
