Yes, it's a bit behind and it looks like some of the initial work you did for scatter/gather got pulled into the 5.15 tree, but subsequent changes didn't. I don't have much control over the kernel versioning as we're part of the GKI Android initiative: https://source.android.com/docs/core/architecture/kernel/generic-kernel-image and we can only work off of what is provided, like this release line: https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common/+log/refs/heads/android13-5.15 Perhaps we can revert these changes for the 5.15 kernel (and other versions) they were not intended for? > > > https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-usb/patch/20210628155311.16762-5-m.grzeschik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ and > > https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-usb/patch/20210628155311.16762-6-m.grzeschik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > > > > If I revert these two changes, then I have much improved stability and a > > transmission problem I'm seeing is gone.

Out of curiosity, have you tested these changes with dwc3 and if so, have you tried "usb: gadget: uvc: decrease the interrupt load to a quarter" with scatter/gather disabled? For me the crash occurs more often.
