Why do we need to add Palmas USB_IRQ unmask logic in shutdown? Does that
mean for all platform using Palmas has to unmask USB IRQ (including
those do not power vbus through Palmas)? Can't we just have a simple
shutdown function but have the VBus programming been done in USB driver
or maybe platform driver since it is platform specific control?
