which interrupt? I'll try to answer based on assumptions: 1707 PHY connects to
bq24150 charger via CHRG_DET signal.
I guess you're talking about the VBUS detection which is done in twl4030 VBUS-
pin R8.

N900 PHY (1707) is connected to musb core via ULPI
(https://www.mentor.com/products/ip/usb/usb20otg/phy_interfaces), it has no
I2C interface and no other IRQ than what's implemented in (normally powered-
down?) ULPI already.
I guess the problem in this case is along the USB VBUS and ID pin A/B OTG
detection: the USB jack's ID pin is _not_ connected to the PHY in N900 but
rather is connected to TWL4030 aka GAIA ID pin R11 which afaik is part of the
otherwise unused (except VBUS detection?) PHY in TWL4030.
It seems to me the actually used PHY 1707 does not support ID, neither does it
support a dedicated IRQ line for VBUS.

Generally musb-core and buses should be suspended/off by default, for energy
conservation reasons (seemingly ~40mA on Vbatt!), and only get enabled when
twl4030 detects +5V on VBUS (also before my hostmode botch tries to talk to
the musb core debug registers which needs to happen before VBUS gets applied)
