Right, and the phy code has:

                 if (data->id_det_gpio) {
                         /* OTG mode, force ISCR and cable state updates */
                         data->id_det = -1;
                         data->vbus_det = -1;
                         queue_delayed_work(system_wq, &data->detect, 0);
                 } else {
                         /* Host only mode */
                         sun4i_usb_phy0_set_id_detect(_phy, 0);
                         sun4i_usb_phy0_set_vbus_detect(_phy, 1);
                 }

Where we enter the host only path (no id-pin in host only mode) and
then sun4i_usb_phy0_set_vbus_detect updates the ISCR register of
the phy to make it report vbus valid. I've done an mmio-dump of
the iscr register while running Linux, and this code does the right
thing.

I agree with you that this is weird, but atm I see no other way
to fix this then the submitted patch.

Regards,

Hans
