I still fail to see why this needs to be controllable at runtime.
This looks like a hardware property. Are there any known products,
which need this disabled?

So basically this depends on the hardware integration (e.g. it
should be disabled when power source is a DC barrel jack instead
of USB) and is not supposed to change at all during runtime? Then
the information wether it needs to be enabled should be derived
from the device tree.
