google/gru: Power-cycle USB ports in developer/recovery modes
Gru only uses USB 2.0 in firmware to avoid all the madness associated with Type-C port orientation and USB 3.0 tuning. We do this by isolating the SuperSpeed lines in the Type-C PHY so it looks like they aren't connected to the device. Unfortunately, some devices seem to already get "locked" into SuperSpeed mode as soon as they detect Rx terminations once, and can never snap out again on their own. Since the terminations are already connected during power-on reset we cannot disable them fast enough to prevent this, and the only solution we found to date is to power-cycle the whole USB port. Now, Gru's USB port power is controlled by the EC, and unfortunately we have no direct host command to control it. We do however have a command to force a certain USB PD "role", and forcing our host into "sink" mode makes it stop sourcing power to the port. So for lack of a saner solution we'll use this to work around our problem. BRANCH=gru BUG=chrome-os-partner:59346 TEST=Booted Kevin in recovery mode, confirmed that my "problem stick" gets detected immediately (whereas previously I had to unplug/replug it). Booted Kevin to OS in both developer and normal mode and confirmed that USB still seems to work.
