When DWC3 is set to host mode by programming register DWC3_GCTL, VUBS
(or its control signal) will on immediately on related Root Hub ports.
Then the VUBS will be de-asserted for a little while during xhci
reset (conducted by xhci driver) for a little while and back to normal.

This VBUS glitch might cause some USB devices emuration fail if kernel boot
with them connected. One SW workaround which can fix this is to program
all PORTSC[PP] to 0 to turn off VBUS immediately after setting host mode
in DWC3 driver(per signal measurement result, it will be too late to do
it in xhci-plat.c or xhci.c).

I paste its content here for your reference :

This to fix USB enumeration compatibility issue found on DWC3 (host mode)
IP only.

Some pre-discussion mails can be referred from:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/23/387
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/22/683

As to the workaround, I know programming xhci register in DWC3 dirver
(probe function) is not good from perspective of SW stack, but it seems
to be the only place to fix this real existing problem (test result show
that doing this in xhci-plat.c or xhci.c would not hlep on this kind of
failure). If who have better idea, please let me know, thanks in advanced.

Can't you imply this from the compatible string. You should have an SoC 
specific compatible.

Does this even need to be conditional? What would be the harm in doing 
this unconditionally for all DWC3 hosts?

Sorry, not quite get your point here? Actually I have discussed with Soc design guys
and Felipe, it seems to be DWC3 native behavior rather than SoC specific issue.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/23/387
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/12/12/140

I think there could be 2 reasons why we got no report for a long time till now:
1. Most USB devices are not so sensitive to this VBUS glitch, they would works fine.
2. A proper VBUS pump circuit design can successfully filter this glitch out. I have
confirmed this with scope, which means some platforms might resolve issue in
this way already (some might not, of cause).

From the logic level, I don't see a harm to DWC3 hosts if unconditionally apply this.
However, since this is not a only solution (can fix it in HW way), I prefer to let it
controlled by property in DTS node for those questionable board already existing
in market.

Okay, sounds fine.

I would shorten the name a bit: snps,host-vbus-glitches
