Michael,

I agree that this patch is not sufficient. I had a look in the reference manual 
for the imx27 and here:

Serial Transceiver Select—Read/Write. This register bit is used in conjunction 
with the configuration constant
VUSB_HS_PHY_SERIAL to control whether the parallel or serial transceiver 
interface is selected for FS and LS
operation. The Serial Interface Engine can be used in combination with the UTMI+ 
or ULPI physical interface to
provide FS/LS signaling instead of the parallel interface. If VUSB_HS_PHY_SERIAL 
is set for 0 or 1 then this
bit is read only. If VUSB_HS_PHY_SERIAL is 3 or 4 then this bit is read/write.
This bit has no effect unless Parallel Transceiver Select is set to UTMI+ or 
ULPI. The Serial/1.1 physical interface
will use the Serial Interface Engine for FS/LS signaling regardless of this bit 
value.
Note: This bit is reserved for future operation and is a placeholder adding 
dynamic use of the serial engine in
accord with UMTI+ and ULPI characterization logic.
This bit is not defined in the EHCI specification.


To make it short. In some VUSB_HS_PHY_SERIAL configurations the STS is a READ 
ONLY and should not be written. The current code (without my wrong patch) always 
write to the STS!
With the patch there was no write and no oops with Internal 808 ARM exception..

Let me rework it.
