Would you happen to know what DWC3 controller revision the device is
using? The callstack print occurs, because it looks like it ran out of
internal memory, although there should be logic present for making sure
that at least there is enough room for 1 FIFO per endpoint. (possibly
the logic/math depends on the controller revision)
Also, is there a way to use just a mass storage only composition? Based
on the above observation, that probably means that the mass storage
interface wasn't resized at all, because the configuration took up a lot
of the internal FIFO space.
Thanks
