This is about the usbphy code not the musb-controller code, which are
2 different dts nodes, atm only the musb-controller node has a
dr_mode property, and the phy code decides between host-only
and otg mode based on whether an id pin is assigned or not.

My proposal is to get rid of the id-pin hack to determine the mode
and add a dr_mode property to the usbphy dts node.
