U-Boot doesn't use the DT for this USB setup.

That's not likely to be your issue. The probe should be deferred, and
reattempted later.

As I said, that's probably not your issue. Are you sure of your
micro-USB cable? Is it setting the ID pin to the ground as it's
supposed to?

sunxi-next is just a merge of various upstream branches. It doesn't
make sense to report bugs there. You've found the right place already.

It doesn't look like there is.
