N900 (rx51) hostmode notes

There were several (semi-) successful encounters of using the
hostmode, some via tricking the OTG statemachine, some via
implementing the FORCE_HOST testmode properly, we'll concentrate on
the latter

* Hardware
The detailed overview is at http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_USB

** There're leaked schematics

** There're datasheets for SoC (spurf98d is the best version) and
ISP1707/1074

** Comparision with N8x0
*** Same USB core
*** N8x0 uses a discrete component TUSB6010 that integrates musb core and phy
while N900 uses SoC-integrated musb with ISP1707 PHY via ULPI link
*** ID pin of the USB core on N8x0 can be forcibly grounded
programmatically, thus activating the host mode in the core, not
possible with ISP1707
*** ID pin is connected to the micro-usb receptable on N8x0, but some
stupid decided to not route it to ISP1707 on N900 (he routed it to
TWL4030 instead)

** The battery charger chip is controlled via i2c and can
supply 5V/200mA on usb vbus when asked to.
** twl4030 has connection to the ID pin and can sense it
OTG-like operation (at least automatic switching to/from hostmode)
possible?


* Software
** Driver
*** Shitty
*** There's a considerably improved version at linux-omap
(nobody's tried to use it on N900 so far)
*** Needs implementation of forced hostmode via one of the testmodes
See the patchsets in the repository, there're no incremental patches
accompanied by the meaningful logs (yet); when it starts working,
implement it in a separate file as a "platform" function for ``echo
host >/sys/devices/platform/musb_hdrc/mode to start working.
*** Needs (why?) disabling of some current limiting features

*** How can it switch out of "waiting Vbus to rise" state?
*** No way to distinguish between full-speed and high-speed modes
by just looking at the D+, D- states (via debug register of isp1704),
needs special care

** BME
*** Messes with charging so should be disabled
stop bme
*** Incapable of providing VBUS to external device
One can use ``i2cset -y -m 0x07 2 0x6b 0x01 0x05 instead to enable
the reverse boost converter and ``i2cset -y -m 0x80 2 0x6b 0x00 0x80
to disable

** twl4030-usb.c
*** Gets in the way by switching states behind your back
Switches state to b_idle if the ID pin is not grounded), so should be
(at least partially) disabled.
*** Is registered as an OTG controller
Should we provide a minimal OTG driver for isp1407 instead? Or should
we rather get the whole stuff somehow working and then try to port the
upstream driver (it's supposed to be saner)?

** musb
*** SESSREQ (Session request) interrupt preconditions?
*** CONNECT interrupt preconditions?
