Afaik, only controller can pull up dp when it is at device mode by
setting USBCMD_RS. At host mode, clear USBCMD_RS will only stopping
sending SoF from controller side.

I am puzzled why you can pull up D+ by writing an ULPI register, perhaps,
your phy needs DP to change before switching the mode? Would you
double confirm that?
