The topic is about more than one otg controllers and how to tie the right ehci and ohci
to the correct otg_dev instance especially in cases where we can't depend on probe order.

No it is not about that.

That is correct.

I think OTG core would have to rely on USB core in providing the right companion device,
just like we rely on it for the primary vs shared HCD case.
