Not quite, the mx8mm/mn variant is a bit more complex due to the extra 
power domain stuff. And the PHY/MISC bits changed from mx7 too.

Seems there is always some sort of overlap between the Ms in terms of 
IPs that are reused.

I agree, 8MP also only lists xhci (likely dwc3), like original M(Q).
MN should work, I use these patches on a board with it, in host mode only.
