Right, I'm confusing things a bit here. If the VBUS detection is done in
twl4030, then it should notify the USB subsystem. But on n900 the USB
phy is not ti,twl4030-usb, it's the 1707 instead.

So my guess is that in drivers/phy/phy-twl4030-usb.c the interrupt never
gets enabled as the PHY driver never gets probed?

Then for supporting the USB host mode.. We should add regulator support
to the USB PHY driver so if the ID pin is grounded, the PHY driver enables
the VBUS regulator. That too seems to need some coordination between the
drivers/phy/phy-twl4030-usb.c and 1707 driver if the ID pin interrupt is
only detected in drivers/phy/phy-twl4030-usb.c.

Yes so it seems.

I also think there's also some related twl4030 errata where it's
recommended the USB PHY is in suspend mode instead of disabled.
