I the port supports only peripheral mode, why do we need to have a
usb-role-switch property? Shouldn't we in that case have a mode property
with value "device"?

usb-mode-switch is only needed if mode = "otg", isn't it? In all other
cases the functionality is fixed (either host or peripheral) and the
mode cannot be switched.
