It's the same struct device, but USB devices are special and literally
share the mask of the controller. Hence, when of_dma_configure() later
sets a 30-bit DMA mask for the root hub, the controller's mask is also
corrupted.

So it happened to work as dwc2 would overwrite the mask generated by
of_dma_configure() in dwc2_driver_probe().
[ 1.030528] dwc2 3f980000.usb: dwc2_driver_probe - dma_mask = 000000007fffffff
[ 1.037859] dwc2 3f980000.usb: dwc2_driver_probe - dma_mask = 00000000ffffffff
But since 2bf698671205 ("USB: of: fix root-hub device-tree node
handling") it would be corrupted again when the root hub was later
probed.
Note that of_dma_configure() would be called for non-root-hub devices
(e.g. the RPI3 hub and ethernet controller) also before that commit, but
for some reason that does not corrupt the mask.

Indeed. I just submitted patch which would skip DMA configuration for
USB devices during probe and thereby prevent this and similar future
problems.
Thanks,
