Commit 53a2d95df836 ("usb: core: add phy notify connect and disconnect")
causes double use of the 'usb3-phy' in certain cases.

Since that commit, if a generic PHY named 'usb3-phy' is specified in
the device tree, that is getting added to the 'phy_roothub' list of the
secondary HCD by the usb_phy_roothub_alloc_usb3_phy() function. However,
that PHY is getting added also to the primary HCD's 'phy_roothub' list
by usb_phy_roothub_alloc() if there is no generic PHY specified with
'usb2-phy' name.

This causes that the usb_add_hcd() function executes each phy operations
twice on the 'usb3-phy'. Once when the primary HCD is added, then once
again when the secondary HCD is added.

The issue affects the Marvell Armada 3700 platform at least, where a
custom name is used for the USB2 PHY:

  $ git grep 'phy-names.*usb3' arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-37xx.dtsi | tr '\t' ' '
  arch/arm64/boot/dts/marvell/armada-37xx.dtsi:    phy-names = "usb3-phy", "usb2-utmi-otg-phy";

Extend the usb_phy_roothub_alloc_usb3_phy() function to skip adding the
'usb3-phy' to the 'phy_roothub' list of the secondary HCD when 'usb2-phy'
is not specified in the device tree to avoid the double use.
