True, I missed that point. The usb hub connected over hsic interface,
after power-on-reset, might have initiated the 'connect' state on
seeing the idle condition on the bus and since the host/phy controller
is not ready yet, the connect might have failed.

So the correct sequence would be, after the usb host controller and
the phy controllers are initialized, the 'reset' pin on the on-board
usb hub should be asserted. Upon releasing that reset, the usb hub
would initiate the 'connect' state on the HSIC bus.

So even on non-Arndale boards, this should get the USB phy into a clean state regardless of where the bootloader left it, right?

No, the toggling of the vbus cannot ensure hardware-reset on self
powered devices. On Arndale board, since the usb hub is self powered
and being on HSIC interface, the dedicated vbus control gpio line is
instead used to assert the 'reset' pin of the on-board usb hub.

Using the dedicated vbus control line of Exynos5250 (XuhostPWREN) for
hardware resetting the usb hub is a board specific design of Arndale
board. The function ''s5p_setup_vbus_gpio' is meant to turn on the
vbus for downstream ports. Utilizing this function to hardware-reset
the usb hub is not right.

In fact, for Arndale board, there should not be a 'samsung,vbus-gpio'
property for usb2.0 host controller node. Because, there is no such
vbus control line on Arndale board which is using HSIC interface to
connect to USB devices. So this change is not correct. The assertion
of the hardware-reset for the on board usb hub should be handled
elsewhere.

Thanks,
Thomas.
