I apologize for the late response, but I was encountering this same
hang (on an 8315) and applied this patch.  (For what it's worth, I'm
only seeing it after many warm boots; a cold boot / hard power cycle
solves the issue, but since this is eventually going to be locked up
in a box without a console...)

I encountered the hang again this evening, so this fix (plus the snoop
fix) is not sufficientl

Reading through the original thread, it seems that an additional delay
might be required:

However, I never saw a patch to that effect.  I'm assuming (hoping!)
it's something as simple as:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

But confirmation would be nice.  Also, which SDK kernel was this
compared against?  I just downloaded the 8315ERDB BSP, and the kernel
there doesn't seem to have any of this in it.

There was also the follow-on patch that enabled snooping (to deal with
cache coherency?):

   http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/58798

(If there was a formal patch there, it looks like it got scrambled on
gmane, and I can't find another list archive.)

Is that also needed for consistent results here?  (Or are we wandering
astray from "-stable" material?)

Thanks,
Tony.
