Roger, after discussing with Jun off line, we think usb_otg_register
should return -ENOTSUPP if platform is OTG capabilities (HNP || SRP ||
ADP), since this patch set does not cover fully otg features, the users
should not be confused when try to implement fully otg using this
framework.

Later, after your patch set is merged, we can add fully OTG features
using this framework, and remove this check.

What's your opinion?
