I have reproduced that. My latest findings are that, when I debugged
this, usb core on my board I was debugging was behaving uncommon. It was
not setting the USB_PORT_STAT_C_CONNECTION in the first place. But the
further patches I send did solve this.

So this whole issue was due to an uncorrect configured over-current
polarity setup. With my other patches applied I see this bit
USB_PORT_STAT_C_CONNECTION set even without the power-cycle.

My suggestion is to _revert_ this patch, as it is solving a
bogus problem not related to the whole usb-core state machine.

Thanks for testing!
