From my point, we may need to do like > .probe/.remove host platform driver interface. In that case, we can make probe and remove are meant to be called from bus layer. I do not see a way how OTG framework can call probe/remove of HCD driver. Some HCDs may be platform devices, some PCI, so different entities are calling the HCD .probe hook. > sure the clocks and regulators are off, and hcd will be zero-initialized why can't we make that sure that is taken care of within the hcd_ops? Why should some driver keep its regulators and clocks enabled when hcd is stopped? It doesn't need to. If it is doing so now, it needs to be fixed. > next time.
