I agree that we should get rid of that hack, especially since a lack
of an ID pin might also be used on a peripheral-only device.

However, we already have that information in the musb node, and
duplicating the info seems error prone. We already have a custom
function, maybe that's a case for another one, and that would allow to
handle "hard" cases more easily (like CONFIG_USB_MUSB_HOST selected,
with the otg node set to otg).
