Commit Message

  Since commit 0f0101719138 ("usb: dwc3: Don't switch OTG -> peripheral if extcon is present")
Dual Role support on Intel Merrifield platform broke due to rearranging
the call to dwc3_get_extcon().

It appears to be caused by ulpi_read_id() on the first test write failing
with -ETIMEDOUT. Currently ulpi_read_id() expects to discover the phy via
DT when the test write fails and returns 0 in that case, even if DT does not
provide the phy. As a result usb probe completes without phy.

On Intel Merrifield the issue is reproducible but difficult to find the
root cause. Using an ordinary kernel and rootfs with buildroot ulpi_read_id()
succeeds. As soon as adding ftrace / bootconfig to find out why,
ulpi_read_id() fails and we can't analyze the flow. Using another rootfs
ulpi_read_id() fails even without adding ftrace. Appearantly the issue is
some kind of timing / race, but merely retrying ulpi_read_id() does not
resolve the issue.

This patch makes ulpi_read_id() return -ETIMEDOUT to its user if the first
test write fails. The user should then handle it appropriately. A follow up
patch will make dwc3_core_init() set -EPROBE_DEFER in this case and bail out.

Sorry, Ferry, but a few style issues in the commit message.

It's fine to wrap this long line when it's in the commit message main body.

This line breaks the tag block, meaning that Fixes won't be recognized as a tag

ordinary = mainline?

This info fits more for the dwc3 patch, and can we use another word for
"apparently" when we still don't know the real cause? Maybe "we
suspect?"
