first of all i updated my kernel to 4.11rc7 and the issue still occures. Today i had some time to investigate this issue further and i made some interesting observations:

1. The lockup doesn't occure always after starting usb_test. In rare cases i was able to run the program without lockup.
2. In case the lockup occured we are always able to "rescue" the BCM2835 from this state by sending some serial data to the PL2303.
3. I looked again at the logic analyzer traces of the PL2303 and FTDI. After usb_test has been started the time between 2 _dwc2_hcd_irq calls is mostly smaller than 6 us (this can't be correct for a single device doesn't send any data). With other words it seems to me one or more interrupt(s) are never acked.
4. I placed a trace_printk into dwc2_handle_hcd_intr() in order to dump GINTSTS. In normal state we usually reach the value 0x04000029, but not in lockup state.
