My recollection is that those can be used in device mode as well. For
example that USB type A port on Venice2 (same as for Seaboard) can be
used for RCM, IIRC. It's possible that there's no way to detect what is
connected, though, so this may not be proper OTG.

I'm wondering if the best thing would be to mark all of these as "host"
for now and avoid making this look like something that it isn't. I don't
think we've ever made OTG work on these boards, so perhaps we shouldn't
assume that it works.
