In linux-3.8-rc1 it became possible to build the imx and

in the ehci driver.

Manjunath Goudar is already working on a patch to convert
both the imx and the mvebu glue drivers (along with all
the other ARM specific ones) to the new probing method,
but that will be too late to fix v3.8. This patch instead
adds yet another hack like the existing ones to allow
the ehci driver to load both back-ends.

Without this patch, building allyesconfig results in:

drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.c:1285:0: error: "PLATFORM_DRIVER" redefined

NAK, should be converted to the new usage of ehci library driver. Alan
Stern already implemented for a few drivers, help is very welcome.
