This doesn't seem right. It looks like you are doing the vbus_override
only once on probe() and keeping it that way regardless of the dynamic
state of the connector, i.e. even after VBUS is physically removed
and/or ID pin is low.

As suggested by this comment, if you look at the extcon handling, it
intercepts the VBUS state toggling in dwc3_qcom_vbus_notifier() and
calls vbus_override() accordingly. That way it should only be true when
the role==USB_ROLE_DEVICE and disabled otherwise (USB_ROLE_HOST/NONE).

To me the gpio-b connector + usb-role-switch is attempting to be an
alternative to extcon. But to correctly mimic the vbus_override()
behavior I think we need a way to intercept when the connector child
driver calls usb_role_switch_set_role() to the dwc3 device, but somehow
be able to do it from up here in the parent/glue layer. Unfortunately I
don't have a good idea of how to do that, short of shoehorning an
"upcall" notification from drd.c to the glue, something I don't think
Felipe would be a fan of.

Could the usb_role_switch class somehow be enhanced to support chaining
multiple "consumers" to support this case? Such that when the gpio-b
driver calls set_role() it could get handled both by drd.c and
dwc3-qcom.c?
