As Krzysztof said in

and Bjorn noted in his response to your email, the only way to solve
the problem is to fix the user-land app so one would be able to deal
with both old and new DT-nodes name.
How do you suggest this to be done? The userspace ABI in question is
used to bind a USB gadgets to the particular USB controller, using the
device name of the USB controller.
Alternatively you can just
replace the dts with older one, where the name still have
the "dwc3"-prefix.
This is exactly what Linus has mind when he tells us not to break
user space.

Bjorn
