thanks a lot Mathias, I'm running these now. The timeout has not been
easy to reproduce (or I'm just lazy) but in a few days I should be able
to tell whether that helps.

So this thread has been about

[14145.960512] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.4.auto: Port resume timed out, port 1-
1: 0xfe3
[14156.308511] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.4.auto: xHCI host not responding to
stop endpoint command.

that I previously tried to work around by increasing
XHCI_MAX_REXIT_TIMEOUT_MS and XHCI_STOP_EP_CMD_TIMEOUT.


These patches can't help with the following, right?
readl_poll_timeout_atomic() with a fixed timeout is called in this
case:

xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.4.auto: Abort failed to stop command ring: -110

I see that too from time to time. It results in the HC dying as well.

thanks,
