Kernel version is 4.4.

As below code shows up, we will clean the event count register when
waiting for stop the controller (these out of tree code are not added
by me, so I did not know what's problem it fix before). It is one
possible race on my vendor tree.
static int dwc3_gadget_run_stop(struct dwc3 *dwc, int is_on, int suspend)
{
u32 reg;
u32 timeout = 500, i;

if (pm_runtime_suspended(dwc->dev))
return 0;

reg = dwc3_readl(dwc->regs, DWC3_DCTL);
if (is_on) {
if (dwc->revision <= DWC3_REVISION_187A) {
reg &= ~DWC3_DCTL_TRGTULST_MASK;
reg |= DWC3_DCTL_TRGTULST_RX_DET;
}

if (dwc->revision >= DWC3_REVISION_194A)
reg &= ~DWC3_DCTL_KEEP_CONNECT;

reg = dwc3_readl(dwc->regs, DWC3_DCTL);
reg |= DWC3_DCTL_RUN_STOP;

if (dwc->has_hibernation)
reg |= DWC3_DCTL_KEEP_CONNECT;

dwc->pullups_connected = true;
} else {
reg &= ~DWC3_DCTL_RUN_STOP;

if (dwc->has_hibernation && !suspend)
reg &= ~DWC3_DCTL_KEEP_CONNECT;

dwc->pullups_connected = false;
}

dwc3_writel(dwc->regs, DWC3_DCTL, reg);

do {
reg = dwc3_readl(dwc->regs, DWC3_DSTS);
if (is_on) {
if (!(reg & DWC3_DSTS_DEVCTRLHLT))
break;
} else {
if (reg & DWC3_DSTS_DEVCTRLHLT)
break;

/*
* Per databook, Software needs to acknowledge the
* events that are generated (by writing to GEVNTCOUNTn)
* while it is waiting for this bit to be set to 1.
*/
for (i = 0; i < dwc->num_event_buffers; i++) {
reg = dwc3_readl(dwc->regs, DWC3_GEVNTCOUNT(i));
if (reg)
dwc3_writel(dwc->regs,
DWC3_GEVNTCOUNT(i), reg);
}
}

timeout--;
if (!timeout)
return -ETIMEDOUT;
udelay(1);
} while (1);

dwc3_trace(trace_dwc3_gadget, "gadget %s data soft-%s",
dwc->gadget_driver
? dwc->gadget_driver->function : "no-function",
is_on ? "connect" : "disconnect");

return 0;
}

Usually if I found one problem on my vendor tree, then I will check if
the mainline kernel has the same problem, if it is I will send one
patch tested on my vendor tree to fix that. Usually it can work. But
for this patch, I made one mistake that I missed we mask the
interrupts as you pointed out, so the reason of the problem I
described in commit log was wrong. I need to check if it is caused by
some out of tree code or mainline kernel also has the same problem.
Then I can send one correct patch with correct reason. But as Mark's
suggestion, I will change to test and solve problem on one upstreamed
board, so that it can make sure the problems are not caused by out of
tree code any more. Sorry for noise again.
