[PATCH v5 2/4] usb: hub: add infrastructure to pass onboard_dev port features

From: Marco Felsch

Date: Mon Feb 23 2026 - 06:30:01 EST


On board devices may require special handling for en-/disable port
features due to PCB design decisions e.g. enable/disable the VBUS power
on the port via a host controlled regulator or GPIO.

This commit adds the necessary infrastructure to prepare the common code
base for such use-cases.
