this is the roothub :-)

The fact that is claims that it has "no ports" hints at quirk caused,
likely, by poor RTL edits. coreConsultant should make sure that
MAX_PORTS (in xHCI HCC_PARAMS* register set) was set to correct value,
but somehow that field is set to 0 in one of your Amlogic SoC.

no, it's done for peripheral configuration of dwc3. Look at the code
more carefully:
