Ok, I clear now. Then, you may not use CI_HDRC_DUAL_ROLE_NOT_OTG which
is for the controller without OTGSC. For imx6ull, access OTGSC will not
hang the system if USB is NOT at suspend mode.

Current upstream design has already considered the user case for switch
role through GPIO, but there is an issue that the external cable
wakeup doesn't work, I will submit it later (see ci_extcon_wakeup_int
implementation at downstream kernel).

You could try to disable runtime-pm to see if the behaviour is expected
or not, if it is NOT expected, please report what's that?

Sorry about that, I just read code for the upstream kernel with some
downstream patches on it.

There are VBUS and ID events handling which are not non-atomic.
