Hi,

I have added Thomas in the recipients, because I guess he may be of some
help debugging the issue further. Thomas, the beginning of the thread is

Nope, 9df89d85b407690 does not fix the issue but I guess I found the
reason: I think the regression is not directly due to some usb/XHCI
related change. More below.

I started a git bisect session but I had to stop between the two
following commits, because the last ones I tested after those were just
not bootable.

 bad : f9efbce6334844c7f8b9b9459f6d7a6fbc2928e0 (merge commit)
 good: aac59e3efce3dca787b11e34726001603ce3d161 (merge commit)

At that point, I decided to switch to a manual review of the changes
introduced *between* those commits:

$ git log -p aac59e3efce3..f9efbce63348 | grep -c ^commit
524

I looked at which files where touched (387 in total) and dropped those
that are not use on my platform or cannot be suspected fo the bug. I
ended up w/:

  drivers/irqchip/irq-armada-370-xp.c
  drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c

Which are modified by those commits:

  commit f5072dfbac05: PCI: mvebu: make local functions static
  commit 032b4c0cc321: PCI: mvebu: add I/O access wrappers
  commit 9f352f0e6c0f: PCI: mvebu: Dynamically detect if the PEX link is up to enable hot plug
  commit cc54ccd9a696: PCI: mvebu: add support for Marvell Dove SoCs
  commit 52ba992e201f: PCI: mvebu: add support for reset on GPIO
  commit e5615c30c1c9: PCI: mvebu: remove subsys_initcall
  commit bf09b6ae588f: PCI: mvebu: increment nports only for registered ports
  commit b42285f66f87: PCI: mvebu: move clock enable before register access
  commit 5b4deb6526bd: PCI: mvebu: add support for MSI
  commit 31f614edb726: irqchip: armada-370-xp: implement MSI support
  commit 627dfcc249e2: irqchip: armada-370-xp: properly request resources
  
I started suspecting the introduction of MSI support in Marvell PCIe
host controller driver (FL1009 is on the PCIe bus) and compiled a
a 3.13.0-rc8 w/ CONFIG_PCI_MSI disabled (it was enabled in all my
previous tests): I did not manage to reproduce the issue with this
kernel. As a side note, commits 5b4deb6526bd, 31f614edb726 and
627dfcc249e2 are

ATM, I do not know if the problem is related to a bug in introduced MSI
support or some weird incompatibility of that functionality with the
FL1009 which would require some quirk in XHCI stack.

Thomas, I took a look at the changes but I am not familiar w/ how MSI
work. You may have an idea on what is going on here.

Cheers,

ps: Thomas, this is completely unrelated but the code below caught my
eye at the beginning of a hunk in 31f614edb726. When CONFIG_PCI_MSI is
disabled, why is irqnr now compared to 1 instead of 0?
