You make it sound really complex.
Let's see what it means to add it to a totally different platform.
As an example, let's take Google's ADP1 which is based on a different
host controller (msm-sdcc), and add the required support (untested of
course, just a quick sketch, patch is based on android's msm git):

Is it really that complex ?
Thanks,
