Hi Felipe

Please look at the changes in drivers/usb/common/common.c file. 
I'm going to add it as next patch to next version.

commit 607754c60fabc43408f4f2de82d3560c72870787 (HEAD)

    usb:common  Added usb_get_dr_mode_from_string and usb_dr_mode_to_string.

    Patch introduces new function usb_dr_mode_to_string for converting dual role
    mod to string and removes static from usb_dr_mode_to_string definition.

    Both changes have made to avoid duplication of code by cdns3 driver.
