However, we should not include the reset of the DWC3_EVENT_PENDING flag. Had we done this, you may not found the issue above. It serves no purpose for the core driver logic and will be an extra burden for us to maintain. (I don't want to scratch my head in the future to figure out why that change was needed or concern whether it can be removed without causing regression). Thanks, Thinh
