No idea when I might get to it.. Please take a look if you have a
chance to work on it, I think all we have to do:

1. Change musb_gadget_pullup() to run as tasklet/delayed_work to
avoid trying to access I2C PHY's from atomic context. See
3e43a0725637 ("usb: musb: core: add pm_runtime_irq_safe()")
for more info. Not sure if this should be done in a generic
way or for MUSB only. It could be that I remember wrong what
I thought needs to be done. But we want to get rid of the
pm_runtime_irq_save() as that currently forever blocks PM
for the MUSB hardware specific wrapper driver.

2. Remove pm_runtime_irq_safe() added in commit 3e43a0725637

Adding Bin to Cc, maybe he has some better fix in mind.
