I just want to do clean remove at OTG environment, like rmmod, so I did
this when I worked on chipidea OTG design.
I am worried if there are some resources dedicated for host device, eg,
clocks, gpio. etc.

If OTG framework can know well hcd's add and remove, it is ok for chipidea
just calling usb_add_hcd/usb_del_hcd currently, but I suggested roger
adding platform hcd_ops as optional parameter in case the platform
has special requirement for hcd_ops.
