With the boards I have, vbus is not routed to the phy. Instead, there's
a vbus comparator on the PMIC where the vbus line from the usb
receptacle is sent. The vbus extcon driver probes the comparator on the
PMIC to see if vbus is present or not and then notifies extcon users
when vbus changes.

The ULPI register we write in the phy is a vendor specific register
(called MISC_A) that has two bits. If you look at
qcom_usb_hs_phy_set_mode() in this series you'll see that we set
VBUSVLDEXTSEL and VBUSVLDEXT. VBUSVLDEXTSEL controls a mux in the phy
that chooses between an internal comparator, in the case where vbus goes
to the phy, or an external signal input to the phy, VBUSVLDEXT, to
consider as the "session valid" signal. It looks like the session valid
signal drives the D+ pullup resistor in the phy. These bits in MISC_A
don't matter when the phy is in host mode.

So when the board doesn't route vbus to the phy, we have to toggle the
VBUSVLDEXT bit to signal to the phy that the vbus is there or not. I
also see that we're not supposed to toggle the VBUSVLDEXTSEL bit when in
"normal" operating mode. So perhaps we should do everything in the
qcom_usb_hs_phy_set_mode() routine during the role switch as you
suggest, except toggle the VBUSVLDEXT bit. Toggling the VBUSVLDEXT bit
can be done via some new phy op when the extcon triggers?
