Is there any alternative? Something has to happen here.

The only other thing I can think of is putting back the vbus extcon in
the phy driver so it can be notified when vbus is present or not. I can
rely on phy_set_mode() being called so that we don't need to figure out
if we're in host mode or not like was being done before.
