This patch protects system from crashing at shutdown in cases where usb host is not added yet from OTG controller driver. As ehci_setup() not done yet, so stop accessing registers or variables initialized as part of ehci_setup(). The use case is simple, for boards like DB410c where the usb host or device functionality is decided based on the micro-usb cable presence. If the board boots up with micro-usb connected, the OTG driver like echi-msm would not add the usb host by default. However a system shutdown would go and access registers and uninitialized variables, resulting in below crash.
