Existing Intel xHCI controllers require a delay of 1 mS, after setting the CMD_RESET bit in command register, before accessing any HC registers. This allows the HC to complete the reset operation and be ready for HC register access. Without this delay, the subsequent HC register access, may result in a system hang, very rarely. Verified CherryView / Braswell platforms go through over 5000 warm reboot cycles (which was not possible without this patch), without any xHCI reset hang.
