yeah, aparently this is another configuration which is not exposed on
HWPARAMS registers. Paul, can you confirm for us ? I couldn't find it on
Databook on any of the HWPARAMS registers.

heh, so pretty much everybody :-)

Now this is all great information and they should all be part of your
commit log and probably a big comment should be added to code as well.

Thanks for going after all these details, now let's figure out a way to
pass dwc3 revision to xhci, or maybe we pass just a flag for the quirk,
something like:

if (dwc->revision < 3.00a && dwc->has_suspend_on_disconnect)
xhci_pdata.delay_portcsc_clear = true;

or something similar to that.

cheers
