Yes ... we have a host only USB port and an unconnected ID pin.

AFAIK it defaults to device mode so I can't see any devices that get
plugged into the USB port.

If I tweak the s/w to "force" host mode on, then everything appears to
work okay.

I guess it's more of a hardware oversight that we left the pin floating
but in the real world, I guess someone may want this feature to they
can change the usb port type ?

Either way, I need to fix the current h/w (which can be done via s/w)
hence the patch.
