On the host I was experimenting with, the time it took was around 110ms
in HS case. That would translate to a retry count of about ~181,000 in
the above polling loop. Wouldn't that be a very large value for polling?
And not sure if there are other hosts that take even longer time

The lock might be held by upper layers who are unaware/independent of
underlying transport medium. The above TX lock I was referring to was
that held by Linux networking stack. It just pushes out data the same
way it would when USB is active. It is the function/composite layer
being aware of the function suspend would now sense this as a remote
wake event and perform this additional step of bringing out the link
from u3 and then sending device wakeup notification.

In our current upstream implementation of dwc3_gadget_wakeup() API we
hold a spinlock as well. But yeah that can be rectified

static int dwc3_gadget_wakeup(struct usb_gadget *g)
{
struct dwc3 *dwc = gadget_to_dwc(g);
unsigned long flags;
int ret;

spin_lock_irqsave(&dwc->lock, flags);
ret = __dwc3_gadget_wakeup(dwc);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&dwc->lock, flags);

return ret;
}
