that is a shame indeed. It is part of the driver since TUSB support was
merged via commit 550a7375f ("USB: Add MUSB and TUSB support") about 7
years ago.
The parameter expects the timeout values which is used to poll the port
for mode changes (host/device mode) since it can not be detected on its
own.
Felipe knows best if it is better to document it or remove it. I can't
remember that I needed it on am335x.
