I'm not sure if otg_caps structure is a right place for this. Maybe Peter can confirm
if this is OK or not.

I was thinking more about adding this bit in the otg_config structure.

These changes look good to me. Thanks.

Description is not exact. How about this.
"Indicates if host controller needs a companion controller"

Is hcd_needs_companion is better than just needs_companion?
