This is hooked-in in patch 8 of this series in
exynos5_usbdrd_setup_notifiers(). The new behaviour is gated off

    if (device_property_present(phy_drd->dev, "orientation-switch")) {
        ...

Without that property (i.e. old DTS or !gs101), the driver will behave as
before (meaning for gs101 it will work in SS mode in one orientation only).

Does that address your concern?

Cheers,
Andre'
