That is not the issue.

This is the existing code I'm talking about

drivers/usb/core/hub.c

static int usb_enumerate_device_otg(struct usb_device *udev)
{
	int err = 0;

#ifdef	CONFIG_USB_OTG
	/*
	 * OTG-aware devices on OTG-capable root hubs may be able to use SRP,
	 * to wake us after we've powered off VBUS; and HNP, switching roles
	 * "host" to "peripheral".  The OTG descriptor helps figure this out.
	 */
	if (!udev->bus->is_b_host
			&& udev->config
			&& udev->parent == udev->bus->root_hub) {
		struct usb_otg_descriptor	*desc = NULL;
		struct usb_bus			*bus = udev->bus;

		/* descriptor may appear anywhere in config */
		if (__usb_get_extra_descriptor (udev->rawdescriptors[0],
					le16_to_cpu(udev->config[0].desc.wTotalLength),
					USB_DT_OTG, (void **) &desc) == 0) {
			if (desc->bmAttributes & USB_OTG_HNP) {
				unsigned		port1 = udev->portnum;

				dev_info(&udev->dev,
					"Dual-Role OTG device on %sHNP port\n",
					(port1 == bus->otg_port)
						? "" : "non-");

				/* enable HNP before suspend, it's simpler */
				if (port1 == bus->otg_port)
					bus->b_hnp_enable = 1;
				err = usb_control_msg(udev,
					usb_sndctrlpipe(udev, 0),
					USB_REQ_SET_FEATURE, 0,
					bus->b_hnp_enable
						? USB_DEVICE_B_HNP_ENABLE
						: USB_DEVICE_A_ALT_HNP_SUPPORT,
					0, NULL, 0, USB_CTRL_SET_TIMEOUT);

We're sending out this control request even if this host port is not OTG.
Isn't that wrong?

				if (err < 0) {
					/* OTG MESSAGE: report errors here,
					 * customize to match your product.
					 */
					dev_info(&udev->dev,
						"can't set HNP mode: %d\n",
						err);
					bus->b_hnp_enable = 0;
				}

Instead it should be moved inside the if (port1 == bus->otg_port) condition.

			}
		}
	}
#endif
	return err;
}
