Not really, if it goes into compliance mode, the only way to get it out
of there is with a power-on reset. You can't even change link state back
to U0 as that will just tell dwc3 to walk through the compliance
patterns :-p

I think our best bet is understanding why we're transitioning to
compliance and preventing that.

One question comes to mind: Does this happen *only* with the ethernet
gadget? Does it happen with *all* hosts or just a particular host?

Any chance you can capture a full session with both CATC or Beagle 5000
analyzer and dwc3 tracepoints and send it to me?

That's odd, I would expect it to still give the event. Oh well, moving
on :-)
