This drop cause DWC3 USB controller fail on initialization with Layerscaper processors
(such as LS1043A) as below:
[ 2.701437] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.0.auto: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
[ 2.710949] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 1 pages, ret: -16
[ 2.717411] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.0.auto: can't setup: -12
[ 2.727940] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.0.auto: USB bus 1 deregistered
[ 2.733607] xhci-hcd: probe of xhci-hcd.0.auto failed with error -12
[ 2.739978] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.1.auto: xHCI Host Controller
And I notice that someone also reported to you that DWC2 got affected recently,
so do you have the solution now?
Best regards
