There are two distinct questions:
- one is how you describe the board and onboard devices / connectors
- another one is how to make sure VBus is enabled.
I'd suggest having full description (with connectors, graph links
between USB host and connector and vbus-supply properties) and then
having the comment before regulator-always-on describing why it's on.
