I guess you didn't apply my whole patchset.

[1/3] usb: chipidea: add USB PHY event
[2/3] usb: phy: mxs: fix getting wrong state with mxs_phy_is_otg_host()
[3/3] usb: phy: mxs: disconnect line when USB charger is attached

The 2nd patch is going to fix the issue of mxs_phy_is_otg_host():
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230627110353.1879477-2-xu.yang_2@nxp.com/

Our design is not to disconnect line when the controller is acting as host mode.

Thanks,
Xu Yang
