Just to be sure that I've described time point of issue correctly:
[    2.161746] dwc3 2690000.dwc3: failed to initialize core
[    2.167255] dwc3: probe of 2690000.dwc3 failed with error -38
[    2.259687] Freeing unused kernel memory: 280K (c0678000 - c06be000)

Please press Enter to activate this console.
^^^ system stall here


Any way, I can boot and console works fine with your change :)
Thanks.
