I answered Rob on my v1 but got no feedback. My v2 caused an issue found
by Rob's test bot. Therefore I thought he is okay and applied the
patchset for testing.

At least to me it's unclear when Rob's test bot is executed.

Sorry but I don't get you. The binding lists the regulators required to
enable/disable the hub downstream port VBUS. These regulators are
controlled by an external party e.g. the CPU instead of the USB hub
itself. The connection from the CPU to the regulator which controlls the
+5V usb-connector pin is hard-wired, yes.
