Thanks for testing. Let's keep it at zero then.

There aren't any sensors (that I'm aware of). But you can check
/sys/kernel/debug/regulator/regulator_summary and compare the values
with the ones from arch/arm/boot/dts/amlogic/meson8m2-mxiii-plus.dts
Also the vendor u-boot and kernel logs may provide some information.

Thank you for the onboard usb device patches (for those who are curious: [0])!
