I created a Utopic test kernel with CONFIG_USB_OTG  enabled.  It can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1411295/

Can you test this kernel can confirm it fixes this bug or not.  If it
does, I'll submit an SRU to have this change made in Utopic.

Thanks in advance!

Title:
  CONFIG_USB_OTG has gotten set again, kernel will not talk to OTG
  devices

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Utopic:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I have a few devices that have USB OTG ports.  The kernel in Ubuntu
  14.10 and later no longer recognizes these devices because
  CONFIG_USB_OTG forces the kernel to enter host nego protocol (which is
  not generally supported on the other end) and ends up rejecting the
  device.  The devices work with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

  This  CONFIG_USB_OTG config option was disabled by the fix for
  #1047527 but has since been reenabled for whatever reason, rendering
  desktop Ubuntu useless as a development host for these devices.
