So, there is no any events for connecting to Host? If it is, the
workaround for this board is disable runtime pm. And you only need to
write one extcon phandle for ID since you have external event for ID,
but no event for VBUS. ID event is not the same with VBUS, for example,
if you plug cable into host, you will not get the ID event, you could
only get VBUS event if there is an event (eg, through GPIO) for it.
