The bug in this case was apparent only on usb-storage devices, so no streams. The testcase in the linked github issue repeatedly invoked smartctl on a device that didn't support that particular ATA command so stalled the endpoint. The unguarded read-modify-write raced with the completion of the Set TR Deq command being executed by the controller, and the SET_DEQ_PENDING flag would get overwritten with an invalid '1'. I've not investigated how the xhci driver responds to stalls on stream endpoints in detail as I've not seen any user reports of uas active and this error message appearing, but in a wider context, getting a stall on a streaming endpoint on a Pi 4 seems to be generally fatal until the device receives a reset and I've not determined which of the HCD, controller, or device is stuck.
