Yes. What sounds odd is "if the board has OHCI it should also have EHCI."

This is true for this particular board because its chipset is a bcm6358,
but I'm worried it might later confuse other developers. For example the
bcm6348 has a OHCI controller, but that doesn't imply its port can be
used as EHCI.

Regards,

Phil.
