OTG depends on USB bus suspend is not a must, the hardware controlled OTG
design do HNP when the bus goes to suspend; but if the software
implements OTG FSM, it is the user option whether do HNP, and bus
suspend is controlled by OTG FSM software (stop SOF), but not by host 
stack (eg, ehci).

I am sorry I did not consider the legacy OTG design, this patch should
be dropped.
