SubjectRe: earlyprintk=xdbc seems broken

I can confirm, reverting that solves the boot hang, things aren't quite
working for me though.

It certainly is, using ktime for delay loops sounds daft to me anyhow.

[ 0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.16.0-rc3+ root=UUID=a652986c-fbc6-4341-85c3-b4ad4402f130 ro debug ignore_loglevel sysrq_always_enabled usbcore.autosuspend=-1 earlyprintk=xdbc force_early_printk sched_verbose ftrace=nop mitigations=off nokaslr

[ 3.161367] xhci_dbc:early_xdbc_setup_hardware: failed to setup the connection to host

The machine does boot.. but I *am* getting tons of:

[ 485.546898] usb usb4-port4: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
[ 485.546963] usb usb4-port4: config error

However, when I do:

$ echo enable > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:14.0/dbc

I get:

[ 569.442899] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: DbC connected
[ 569.898910] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: DbC configured

And the remote machine gets:

[2318863.729022] usb 2-3: new SuperSpeed USB device number 8 using xhci_hcd
[2318863.749299] usb 2-3: LPM exit latency is zeroed, disabling LPM.

[2318863.751268] usb 2-3: xhci_dbc converter now attached to ttyUSB0

and a subsequent:

$ echo ponies > /dev/ttyDBC0

Does show up on the remote machine...


So XDBC 'works' but earlyprintk is still refusing service.
