Currently, we really need I2C for OHCI on LPC32XX, so actually need to
depend on it. Removing the I2C calls in ohci-nxp.c is waiting for the
phy framework so that I don't need to introduce new API in isp1301.c at
this point.

And right, in the ideal world, we have no I2C dependency and can control
a phy in an abstract way, even without depending on ISP1301, which could
be replaced by sth. else (not sure if this will be done/soldered
practically, though).

For now, will post patches for the current I2C dependency and the
PNX4008 removal.
