Why does this test hsotg->flags.b.port_connect_status? What it really needs to know is whether the core is in device mode. It should test for that instead. Then it could accurately report the true connection state whenever the core is in host mode, regardless of the order in which dwc2_hcd_connect() and dwc2_hcd_disconnect() get called. No? My guess would be that using the wrong test was simply a misguided attempt at optimization.
