Actually, "?" was meant to be some, as of yet undetermined, detection
based on the power and data pins. But there are at least three problems that
come to my mind:
1) We (probably) can't detect a USB host if USB power is enabled, both
because of the 15 kOhm pulldowns and because the PMU won't see the external
power.
2) We most likely won't be able to detect a USB device without providing
power to it.
3) We (probably) can't detect a USB device if we're set for USB device
mode. Likewise with a USB host if we're set for USB host mode.
But it sure would be nice if it worked automatically. I'll have a look at
the s3c2442 user's manual to see if there's any sort of help from that side.
