There seems to be a way to connect a controller to the PSP through its USB port, like shown in the picture below of a "DOSO PSW-303".

Is there a way to do something similar that works with any generic USB controller?

    That device seems to use customized PSP firmware and customized hardware, so probably not unless you create your own customized firmware and hardware.

From my findings, connecting a generic USB controller to a PSP through its USB port requires a master intermediary device, since the PSP can only function as a slave USB device, as shown below:

(Block diagram: (original slave device) -> (intermediary master device) -> (generic USB game controller)

The intermediary device in question can either be a USB-compatible microcontroller (link #1, 2008, "gr8npwrfl"), or a PC (link #2, 2010, "ThirdSeason").

The PSP also must be loaded with custom firmware for such an idea to work.
