Thanks for your effort and looking at this closely. You're right, I'm
interested in referencing USB ports, but I'm using controller phandle
(and then I specify ports manually).

Having each port described by DT would be helpful, it's just something
I didn't find implemented, so I started looking for different ways. It
seems I should have picked a different solution.

So should I work on describing USB ports in DT instead? This looks
like a complex thing to describe, so I'd like to ask for some guidance
first. What do you think about following schema/example?

ohci@1000 {
        compatible = "generic-ohci";
        reg = <0x00001000 0x1000>;
        interrupts = <GIC_SPI 1 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;

        primary-hcd {
                ohci_port0: port@0 {
                        reg = <0>;
                };

                ohci_port1: port@1 {
                        reg = <1>;
                };
        }
};

ehci@2000 {
        compatible = "generic-ehci";
        reg = <0x00002000 0x1000>;
        interrupts = <GIC_SPI 2 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;

        primary-hcd {
                ehci_port0: port@0 {
                        reg = <0>;
                };

                ehci_port1: port@1 {
                        reg = <1>;
                };
        }
};

xhci@3000 {
        compatible = "generic-xhci";
        reg = <0x00003000 0x1000>;
        interrupts = <GIC_SPI 3 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;

        primary-hcd {
        };

        shared-hcd {
                xhci_port0: port@0 {
                        reg = <0>;
                };
        }
};

With such a DT struct, how could I query port for a Linux-assigned number?

For example with OHCI, EHCI and XHCI drivers compiled, Linux assigns
number 4 to my XHCI's shared HCD's root hub:
xhci-hcd 18023000.xhci: xHCI Host Controller
xhci-hcd 18023000.xhci: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 4
hub 4-0:1.0: USB hub found
hub 4-0:1.0: 1 port detected

If I disable OHCI and EHCI I get:
xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.0: xHCI Host Controller
xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2
hub 2-0:1.0: USB hub found
hub 2-0:1.0: 1 port detected

So I need my "usbport" trigger driver to be able to get "4-1" in the
first case and "2-1" in the second case. I guess I should use
&xhci_port0 but what then? How could I translate it into
Linux-assigned numbering?

OK, point taken. I'll make sure to document it once we agree how to
proceed with implementation.
