I noticed a similar problem on the Qualcomm MSM8916 SoC (chipidea USB
driver) and reverting commit 0db213ea8eed ("usb: gadget: udc: core:
Invoke usb_gadget_connect only when started") fixes it for me. The
follow-up commit a3afbf5cc887 ("usb: gadget: udc: core: Prevent
redundant calls to pullup") must be reverted first to avoid conflicts.
These two were also backported into 6.1.28.
I didn't have time to investigate it further yet. With these patches it
just hangs forever when setting up the USB gadget.
