OK, Ferry, I think I'm going to need clarification on specifics on
your test setup. Can you share your kernel config, maybe your
"/proc/config.gz", somewhere? When you say you are running vanilla
Linux, do you mean it or do you mean vanilla tree + some patch delta?

The reason I'm asking is because I'm having a hard time reproducing
the problem on my end. In fact, when I build v6.0
(4fe89d07dcc2804c8b562f6c7896a45643d34b2f) and then do a

git revert 8bd6b8c4b100 0f0101719138 (original revert proposed by Andy)

I get an infinite loop of reprobing that looks something like (some
debug tracing, function name + line number, included):

[    6.160732] tusb1210 dwc3.0.auto.ulpi: error -110 writing val 0x41

[    6.366589] dwc3 dwc3.0.auto: Driver dwc3 requests probe deferral
[    6.376901] platform dwc3.0.auto: Added to deferred list

which renders the system completely unusable, but USB host is
definitely going to be broken too. Now, ironically, with my patch
in-place, an attempt to probe extcon that ends up deferring the probe
happens before the ULPI driver failure (which wasn't failing driver
probe prior to https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220213130524.18748-7-hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx/),
there no "driver binding" event that re-triggers deferred probe
causing the loop, so the system progresses to a point where extcon is
available and dwc3 driver eventually loads.

After that, and I don't know if I'm doing the same test, USB host
seems to work as expected. lsusb works, my USB stick enumerates as
expected. Switching the USB mux to micro-USB and back shuts the host
functionality down and brings it up as expected. Now I didn't try to
load any gadgets to make sure USB gadget works 100%, but since you
were saying it was USB host that was broken, I wasn't concerned with
that. Am I doing the right test?

For the reference what I test with is:
 - vanilla kernel, no patch delta (sans minor debug tracing) + initrd
built with Buildroot 2022.08.1
 - Initrd is using systemd (don't think that really matters, but who knows)
 - U-Boot 2022.04 (built with Buildroot as well)
 - kernel config is x86_64_defconfig + whatever I gathered from *.cfg
files in https://github.com/edison-fw/meta-intel-edison/tree/master/meta-intel-edison-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/files
