The driver itself is tested on my NAS 4220, which has *two* USB Ports. I 
transfered about 4 GB from one USB thumb drive to another one.

I must check my Inventory. I can remember of some Samsung SE-208BW.
It's CD/DVD Wifi device which uses also Gemini SoC, and has one host and 
gadget port.

And with the handling with the gadget port is odd. If this is connected 
with an USB host controller all parts are powerd off, only the CD/DVD part 
is running and the USB lines are passed trough. So there must be some 
switch device here.

There is also some VBUS and USB-ID pins controlled by the Gemini SoC, but 
these are not used on my NAS, maybe the CD/DVD Writer.

I think the DMA engine is used for other stuff.
Some quick grep with SL2312_GENERAL_DMA_BASE and WRITE_DMA_REG
in the NAS 4420 sources 

drivers/char/gemini_i2s.c
drivers/telephony/gemini_ssp.c
drivers/telephony/gemini_ssp.h
include/asm-arm/arch-sl2312/gemini_i2s.h
include/asm-arm/arch-sl2312/gemini_ssp.h
sound/oss/Storm_ssp.c
sound/oss/storm_ssp.h

sound (via i2s) and telephone ???

Oh and your powercontroler is in
drivers/char/gemini_pwr.c
