This reverts commit 50642709f6590fe40afa6d22c32f23f5b842aed5.

This commit breaks hardware based role switching on TI platforms.
cdns->role_sw is always going to be non-zero as it is a pointer
to the usb_role_switch instance. Some other means needs to be used if
hardware based role switching is not required by the platform.

Hi Roger,

I am sorry about that. Do you use role switch /sys entry, if you have
used, I prefer using "usb-role-switch" property at dts to judge if SoC
OTG signals or external signals for role switch. If you have not used
it, I prefer only setting cdns->role_sw for role switch use cases.


We use both hardware role switch and /sys entries for manually forcing a
certain role.

We do not set any "usb-role-switch" property at DTS.

Currently cdns->role_sw is being always set by driver irrespective of any DT
property, so this patch is clearly wrong and needs to be reverted.

What do you think?


Could you accept below fix?

Although this will fix the issue I don't think this is making the driver to behave
as expected with usb-role-switch property.

Now, even if usb-role-switch property is not present the driver will still register
the role switch driver.

I think we need to register the role switch driver only if usb-role-switch property
is present. We would also need to set the default role if role-switch-default-mode is present.

How about the following? It still doesn't handle role-switch-default-mode property though.
