right, you see now why is it a problem to mix cleanups with fixes ? You
*never*, ever combine unrelated changes in a single patch. It makes it a
lot more difficult to see what you're actually changing. So, to start
with, this patch should (if it was correct) be split into two smaller
patches: one re-factoring the duplicated code into set_pullup() and
another which fixes vbus_active and softconnect flags.
But hang on, before you do that...

So here's you mistake: the idea of can_pullup() (and thus, vbus_active
and softconnect flags) is to tell the driver "we're connet to a host,
it's safe to connect your pullups".
When you set both those flags to true, you're telling the driver that
you, indeed, are connected to a host. This might not be true if you
first boot up your platform, load all drivers and only after connect the
cable. In essence, you're lying to your driver and, as my mommy used to
say, "nobody likes a liar, my boy".
Curret situation isn't very good either since the driver is assuming
that cable is only plugged after driver is loaded, so it won't cope very
well with situation where cable is first plugged, then you apply power
to your board.
What you *really* need to do here is ask the HW for initial states of
those flags. During your probe() routine - as the name says - you
probe your HW to check its state (or to initialize its state), then you
ask "Hey IP, is VBUS above session valid threshold ?" Then you use the
HW's reply to initialize both flags, the way you want.
cheers
