I'm not USB OTG expert, but from the power supply point of view the
patch looks OK. If there are no objections, I'll queue it for 2.6.30.

Thanks Philipp. ;-)

On a general note, I'd prefer linux/usb/otg.h provide stubs for
!USB_OTG_UTILS case.. I.e.

#ifdef CONFIG_USB_OTG_UTILS
extern struct otg_transceiver *otg_get_transceiver(void);
extern void otg_put_transceiver(struct otg_transceiver *);
#else
static inline struct otg_transceiver *otg_get_transceiver(void)
{ return NULL; }
static inline void otg_put_transceiver(struct otg_transceiver *) {}
#endif

That way we could avoid #ifdefs in drivers.
