Don't prefer export symbols from PHY driver. That'll create unnecessary
dependencies between the controller and the PHY.

Agreed.


I think it'll be better to create a new attribute and use it?

Another simpler option is to not support _set_mode() for DA8xx, and the
phy driver set the otgmode bit in probe() based on dr_mode of the
controller.

This certainly works for my particular use case, however, Sergei
Shtylyov, who wrote the da8xx musb glue layer originally, seemed to
recall in his review of the patch series that this really is
necessary for OTG mode to work properly.

I don't know much about the usb module on DA8xx, but it seems to me that
_set_mode() has nothing to do with OTG mode.

   No, it does.

musb_core only calls
_set_mode() in two places - 1) sysfs: musb_mode_store(), 2) init:
musb_init_controller(). None of them should be related to OTG mode.

   Both these places do select OTG mode.

Regards,
-Bin.

MBR, Sergei
