Yeah some of them can take at least 10 seconds even to enumerate.
So probably we need to have to have some longer timeout set for
OTG_STATE_A_WAIT_BCON, like 20 or 30 seconds.

It's been really long time since I read the OTG spec. There
may be some diagram showing the required timeouts in the spec
if there is one for VBUS.

Maybe we need some property to specify vbus-always-on-in-host-mode?
