Well I'm not really sure here.

The problem was in missing "drivers/usb/phy/of.o" in "drivers/usb/built-in.o".
So I took a look at how components get enabled and saw quite mixed stuff.

In "drivers/usb/phy/Makefile" we see:
------------------------->8---------------------------
obj-$(CONFIG_OF)»       »       »       += of.o
------------------------->8---------------------------

In "drivers/usb/Makefile" we see:
------------------------->8---------------------------
obj-$(CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT)»      += phy/
------------------------->8---------------------------

From above I may conclude that your proposal should work as well
but it's more a question of which approach is safer and more future proof.

Maybe it even worth adding the following to "drivers/usb/Makefile":
------------------------->8---------------------------
obj-$(CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT)»      += phy/
------------------------->8---------------------------

Any thoughts are more than welcome.
