Oh I was just thinking what we might want to do in the future if
we want to cut off VBUS when no devices are connected. If we have
a USB modem for example it might first enumerate as some boot device,
then nothing for 20 seconds while it's booting, and then we have a
different device enumerating after the modem has booted. During this
period we want to keep VBUS on and will go through multiple
OTG_STATE_A_WAIT_BCON states. So we can't really control VBUS using
the OTG_STATE_WHATEVER alone.
