and this is the very problem I'm referring to. If you have changes on
DWC3 on your "vendor tree" you're testing *mainline* DWC3. Which kernel
is your tree even based on?

you're wrong to assume your vendor tree *with changes on DWC3 driver* is
equivalent to testing *mainline*. That just doesn't add up.

If you were adding just platform init code (something under your mach-*
directory, some DTS, etc) that's fine. But you have changes on the USB
peripheral controller driver. This makes me rather uneasy about your
patches. I mean, if you have changes to DWC3, what other changes do you
have there? Also, if your changes are in PM code, which we have support
in upstream, this suggests that you're using older kernel from the time
when we didn't have PM support upstream. This means you're using
something pre-v4.8. Which kernel are you using?

cheers
