right.

ah, I missed it, thanks for spotting.

Well, that's what I initially did but then I reverted to this approach as
returning true/false from dwc3_qcom_is_host() based on the pointer availability
doesn't sound right.

For example, if we return true then it implies that the driver is in host mode
which is logically wrong (before dwc3 probe) even though there is no impact.
