I have more feedback about it: "When I look at it on the oscilloscope
this isn't a 'slow discharge' like a slowly draining capacitor, it is
a delay between the removal of a device and the initiation of the
discharge.  The discharge itself is quite fast once it begins, it just
seems as if the SOC/driver is taking a long time to notice the cable
is disconnected. At this stage, this isn't actually a problem, just
odd."

While working on this issue we found that the
tg_state_a_wait_vrise_timeout case seemed not managed by musb_dsps
driver. I've just submitted a patch for it:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/8/20/507

I made most of my test on a 3.17 kernel and today by using a 4.1
kernel with the patch I have submitted I didn't manage to reproduce
the issue. I saw that since 3.17, there were some patches related to
the babble interrupts; so maybe it was enough to fix the issue we saw.
It is still weird because one month ago I also tested with a 4.1
kernel and I had issues...

It needs more testing to see if it is really fixed because the issue
comes only time to time. I will keep you inform about our last tests.


Thanks,

Gregory
