As Jun Li helpfully explained my patch is not correct, so don't bother.

I don't have a problem with your patch, was just trying to share
what I had done.

I've since learned that the board I'll be working on will not even have
SS, so I will not pursue SBU. I'll most likely use your patches instead
as they seem simpler than what I did and should fully meet my needs for
an usb port that works in both host and device mode.

Not that it matters, but +1 from me on applying your patches.
(If people are hesitant to do it because of lack of SS, then maybe
that could be adressed by adding a comment setting the expectations?)
