Then some legacy platform will have problem if it wants to use those
new properties and flags, the existing DTs cannot work as before, E.g. for
some controller driver, before my patch, the HNP/SRP are enabled,
ADP is disabled, after utilize those new properties and flags in its
controller driver, it becomes a new platform, but the existing DTs
using this controller driver did not pass any xyz_disable, so
gadget->xyz_support will be updated to be OTG_FEATURE_ENABLED, and
the result will be HNP/SRP/ADP all are enabled.
In some controller driver:
if (xyz_disable_property_appear_in_dt())
gadget->xyz_support = OTG_FEATURE_DISABLED;
else
gadget->xyz_support = OTG_FEATURE_ENABLED;
The existing/old DT with this controller driver will enable all
OTG features no matter it support it or not, but it does not want
ADP.
