Thanks Alan.  I'll correct the patch.

Yes, this does work, it's tested. Yes, controller needs to be disabled when switching the mode from
Host to gadget and vice-versa. Only one driver can have control of the hardware at a time. that's why call 
to usb_remove_hcd() is made. Gadget driver configures the controller in gadget mode, and takes control of
the hardware
