Not fully compatible, OTG 2.0 extend the usb_otg_descriptor by adding a new
member bcdOTG to identify the OTG version, this descriptor needs to be sent
to OTG host with correct size and content, so we have to know which release
version the OTG device is compliant with, either by menuconfig config or pass
via DT.

The problem of below link, seems your device is claiming it's a HNP capable
OTG device, but connecting to a non-OTG port of your Host, assume your Host
does have a OTG port, your Host issue a A_ALT_HNP_SUPPORT request to your
OTG device to remind it can use another port with HNP, but the request failed
(maybe STALL by your device, this request is defined in OTG 1.3 but obsolete
in OTG 2.0), so your Host just stopped enumeration of your device, this is not
reasonable because current OTG code is some out of data.

I am trying to make those OTG feaures to be configurable options, you mean
by sys?

We want to enable all those support in kernel driver, but some platform or
hardware may not want to enable any or some of them, so those hardware
can disable it by not pass the property in dt, the 3 sub features of OTG are
not mandatory for so called OTG device, normally we at least enable HNP, and
SRP and ADP are optional.

dr_mode is to tell the device it will work at OTG mode(there is another simple
dual role mode which is commom used but not HNP), srp/hnp/adp can further specify
which protocol the OTG device will support.
