Not sure if all SoC works like that.

Since fully OTG FSM needs to call usb_gadget_stop too, and it doesn't
want need to call usb_gadget_disconnect at usb_gadget_stop, it calls
usb_gadget_disconnect at otg_fsm->ops->loc_conn in its FSM.
You current code combines otg_fsm->ops->loc_conn into
otg_fsm->ops->start_gadget, but according to spec, ->loc_conn is an action
after ->start_gadget.
Keep two actions alone can be flexible.

The same for above.

No, please check the six outputs at the spec, all of them need to
have an action, but your soc/code can do noop if the action has done at
start/stop_role. If it is only a state variable indicator, and we have no
code to use it, why it needs to be at fsm structure. We need to use
this indicator to know if related action needs to be done again, see below API.
static inline int otg_loc_conn(struct otg_fsm *fsm, int on)
{
if (!fsm->ops->loc_conn)
return -EOPNOTSUPP;
if (fsm->loc_conn != on) {
fsm->loc_conn = on;
fsm->ops->loc_conn(fsm, on);
}
return 0;
}
Yes, it can work even without loc_conn for fully OTG FSM, but it exists
at OTG spec. We'd better to keep it to reflect the spec.
So, since usb_gadget_stop/usb_gadget_start is common API for both drd
and fully fsm, we keep the same function for both. For drd, you doesn't
need to define otg_fsm->ops->loc_conn at your platform, it calls
usb_udc_vbus_handler at drd_set_state.
