Well, there is nothing specific about the Berlin CI. Some
subsystems use the 'generic' keyword in these cases. Do you see a
particular reason I should use some Berlin related compatible here?

Not must, one suggestion is: can you change the compatible string
to "chipidea-usb-generic"?

I don't know about ChipIdea/ARC/DW's product portfolio but I guess
the compatible should also carry '2.0' or 'usb2' in it. Or we just
use some version number like 'chipidea,ci13000' or 'chipidea,ci13xxx'.

The recommended format for compatible string is:
"manufacturer,model", I agree with "chipidea,ci13xxx", thanks.

I think we should probably avoid using wildcards in the compatible
string.
    I'm sure wildcards shouldn't be allowed there. :-)
Then, what's your guys recommend, how about "chipidea,usb2-generic"?
So what do you think? "chipidea,ci13", "chipidea,usb2-generic" or
something else?

I tend to prefer something without the 'generic' keyword.

After updating the compatible I'll send a v3 based on USB changes
introducing the generic PHY support[1].
