Just a note: if a connected USB device has relative big capacitor
at power wires inside, then a starting current pulse may be enough to
overload the boost reguator and VBUS will not be powered. I met this
at Yoga Book: the firmware set boost current limit to 1.4 A (default
value for bq25892) but when USB hub connected, the BOOST_FAULT event
appeared.

To avoid this, Lenovo uses following trick in its kernel: set a boost
current limit to big value (2.1 A), wait some time (500 ms) and set
the current limit to right value (1.4A). This provides enough current to
charge capacitors in the connected device but saves desired long-time limit
to prevent overloading if the device consumes too much power itself.
