FWIW, I've always been very intrigued about the embedded USB port but
never managed to find any way to get it actually enabled. :( ...so I'm
probably not the best person to actually review this. That being said:
1. I'm nearly certain that this is completely unusable on herobrine
boards. Specifically on herobrine there's a USB hub between the SoC
and all the physical ports on the device and (I think?) that prevents
EUD from working. It is possible that hoglin/zoglin is an exception
here and Qualcomm might have some backdoor way to access EUD on these
devices since this is hardware that they built.
2. I've always been pretty baffled about the sc7280 EUD stuff since
the device tree shows the EUD on "usb_2". For some background: there
are two USB controllers on sc7280. There's "usb_1" which is USB
2.0/3.0 capable and, at an SoC level, is the "Type C" port.
Specifically the pins on the SoC for the USB 3.0 signals are the same
pins on the SoC as two of the DisplayPort lanes. Then there's "usb_2"
which is USB 2.0 only. If you'll notice, "usb_2" is not set to status
"okay" on any boards except "sc7280-idp.dts".
I asked Qualcomm at least a few times in the past if the EUD is truly
on the USB 2.0 port (which means it isn't connected to anything on
herobrine boards) or if it's actually on the "type C" port (which
means there's a hub in between) and never got a ton of clarify...
Given how baffling everything is, I wouldn't be opposed to just
deleting the EUD from the device tree until there is more clarity
here. If you don't want to just delete it, at least I'd say that it
shouldn't be hooked up for herobrine.
