For existing cases this is sufficient.
The otg device is either the one supplied during usb_otg_register_hcd
(cases B and C) or it is the parent device (case A).

It does not work when the 3 devices are totally independent and get registered
at different times.
I don't think there is such a case for non-DT yet, but let's not have this
limitation. So yes, we need to look for better solution :).
