If I'm reading this output right, we're spending half of our interrupt
processing time in irq_exit(), so even if dwc2's interrupt was free (the
generic_handle_irq() chain), we'd be eating about half the CPU getting
back out of the interrupt handler, right?

I don't really know anything about DWC2 or USB, but is there any way we
could mitigate the interrupt frequency with this hardware?  If nothing
else, could we loop reading gintsts until it reads back 0?
