OK, it is good to hear that.

Unfortunately after second look there are even more problems with Kconfig
changes, please see below.

Previously it was possible to have following functionalities in
one kernel (for multiplatform kernels):

- host PCI support
- host platform support
- gadget platform support

Now mode selection will determine the used mode for combined
host+gadget platform driver.  It is no longer possible to have
host platform and gadget platform support in one kernel.

Also there is only one mode selection for both PCI and platform
drivers so it is no longer possible to have both gadget platform
support and host PCI support in one kernel.

I think it would be the best to replace global mode selection
choice option with just two independent suboptions for combined
host+gadget platform driver which will enable host and gadget
support to be compiled into the driver (you would need to enable
both for dual role support).  The actual selection of the mode
used should be done at runtime using device tree.

[ Host PCI support can be left as independent host only driver
  for now until it also gets proper gadget support (according to
  comments from Paul). ]

I was referring to the full comment (in the patch there are only two first
lines shown):

# NOTE: The previous s3c-hsotg peripheral mode only driver has been moved to
# this location and renamed gadget.c. When building for dynamically linked
# modules, dwc2_gadget.ko will get built for peripheral mode. For host mode,
# the core module will be dwc2.ko, the PCI bus interface module will called
# dwc2_pci.ko and the platform interface module will be called dwc2_platform.ko.
# At present the host and gadget driver will be separate drivers, but there
# are plans in the near future to create a dual-role driver.
