A word of warning that I'm pretty rusty on dwc2 and even when I was
making lots of patches I still considered myself a bit clueless.
...so if something seems wrong, please call me on it...

So you're potentially doing a bounce buffer atop a bounce buffer now,
right?  That seems pretty non-optimal.  You're also back to doing a
kmalloc at interrupt time which I found was pretty bad for
performance.

Is there really no way you can do your memory allocation in
dwc2_alloc_dma_aligned_buffer() instead of here?  For input packets,
if you could just allocate an extra 3 bytes in the original bounce
buffer you could just re-use the original bounce buffer together with
a memmove?  AKA:

transfersize = 13 + 64;
buf = alloc(16 + 64);

// Do the first transfer, no problems.
dma_into(buf, 13);

// 2nd transfer isn't aligned, so align.
// we allocated a little extra to account for this
dma_into(buf + 16, 64);

// move back where it belongs.
memmove(buf + 13, buf + 16, 64);


To make the above work you'd need to still allocate a bounce buffer
even if the original "urb->transfer_buffer" was already aligned.
Ideally you'd be able to know when dwc2_alloc_dma_aligned_buffer()
that this is one of the special cases where you need a slightly
oversized bounce buffer.

---

If you somehow need to do something for output, you'd do the opposite.
You'd copy backwards top already transferred data to align.

So what happens if were unaligned (AKA (chan->xfer_dma & 0x3)) but
we're not doing split or it's not an IN EP?  Do we just fail then?

I guess the rest of this patch only handles the "in" case and maybe
you expect that the problems will only come about for do_split, but it
still might be wise to at least print a warning in the other cases?
>From reading dwc2_hc_init_xfer() it seems like you could run into this
same problem in the "out" case?

Here and elsewhere in this patch: In general I think policy is that
you shouldn't include __func__ for dev_err().  The string together
with the name of the device is supposed to uniquely determine where
you are.

Your patch uses tabs but everything else in this comment uses spaces.
Please be consistent with surrounding code.  It looks like I may have
screwed this up in the past on the comment of "struct dwc2_qh", but
that's no reason to mess it up again...

Assuming I'm understanding this patch correctly, I think it would be
better to write:

  memcpy(qtd->xfer_dma, chan->qh->dw_align_buf, len);

Then if you ever end up having to align a transfer other than a split
you won't be doing the wrong math.  As it is it's very non-obvious
that you're hardcoding the same formula that's in dwc2_hc_init_xfer()

Why assign qh->dw_align_buf_dma to 0?  The next thing you're doing is
kfree(qh).  If you want extra debugging, turn on slub_debug.
