Just for the record, I am still seeing this with 6.14.0-rc1
Is this a regression? If so, which versions were not affected?
Unfortunately, I do not know. Right now, my logs go back until September
2024.

How hard to reproduce? Wasn't it during resume from hibernation?
It’s not easy to reproduce, and I believe it’s not related with resuming
from hibernation (which I do not use) or ACPI S3 suspend. I think, I can
force it more, when having the USB-C adapter with only the network cable
plugged into it, and then running `sudo powertop --auto-tune`. But sometimes
it seems unrelated.
IRQ isuses may be a red herring, this code here is a busy wait under
spinlock. There are a few of those, they cause various problems.
if (xhci_handshake(&xhci->op_regs->status,
STS_RESTORE, 0, 100 * 1000)) {
xhci_warn(xhci, "WARN: xHC restore state timeout\n");
spin_unlock_irq(&xhci->lock);
return -ETIMEDOUT;
}
This thing timing out may be close to the root cause of everything.
Interesting. Hopefully the USB folks have an idea.
Handler #08 is NET_RX. So something raised the NET_RX on some non-appropriate
place, perhaps...
Can I ask you one more trace dump?
I need:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/irq/softirq_raise/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/options/stacktrace
Unfortunately this will also involve a small patch:

Thank you for your help. I applied the patch on top of 6.14-rc2, and was
able to reproduce the issue. Please find the Linux messages attached, and
the trace can be downloaded [1].
So here is the offender:
=> __raise_softirq_irqoff
=> __napi_schedule
=> rtl8152_runtime_resume.isra.0
=> rtl8152_resume
=> usb_resume_interface.isra.0
=> usb_resume_both

=> usb_autoresume_device
=> usb_remote_wakeup
=> hub_event
=> process_one_work
=> worker_thread
=> kthread
=> ret_from_fork
=> ret_from_fork_asm
It is calling napi_schedule() from a non-interrupt. And since
____napi_schedule() assumes to be called from an interrupt, it
raises the softirq accordingly without waking up ksoftirqd.
Can you try the following fix (untested, sorry...) ?

With this diff applied, I wasn’t able to reproduce the issue. Looks
promising. Thank you very much.
