emmm, the main problem now is that there is a phenomenon on CI20 r1
(JZ4780) and CU1000 (X1000) that even if there is no overcurrent
(nothing is connected), there is still a high probability (about every
10 times it will be 6 to 7 times) an overcurrent warning appears (even
when just finish detect the OTG driver during the kernel startup),
which then causes the OTG function to not work normally before the
system restarts.

Thanks and best regards!
