To interject, what should happen in dwc3_gadget_ep_reclaim_completed_trb if the
IOC bit is not set (but the IMI bit is) and -EXDEV status is passed into it?
If the function returns 0, another attempt to reclaim may occur. If this
happens and the next request did have the HWO bit set, the function would
return 1 but dwc3_gadget_ep_cleanup_completed_request would still call
dwc3_gadget_giveback.

As a test (without this patch), I added a check to see if HWO bit was set in
dwc3_gadget_ep_cleanup_completed_requests(). If the usecase was ISOC and the
HWO bit was set I avoided calling dwc3_gadget_ep_cleanup_completed_request().
This seemed to also avoid the iommu related crash being seen.

Is there an issue in this area that needs to be corrected instead? Not having
interrupts set for each request may be causing some new issues to be uncovered.

As far as the crash seen without this patch, no good stacktrace is given. Line
provided for crash varied a bit, but tended to appear towards the end of
dwc3_stop_active_transfer() or dwc3_gadget_endpoint_trbs_complete().

Since dwc3_gadget_endpoint_trbs_complete() can be called from multiple
locations, I duplicated the function to help identify which path it was likely
being called from. At the time of the crashes seen,
dwc3_gadget_endpoint_transfer_in_progress() appeared to be the caller.

dwc3_gadget_endpoint_transfer_in_progress()
->dwc3_gadget_endpoint_trbs_complete() (crashed towards end of here)
->dwc3_stop_active_transfer() (sometimes crashed towards end of here)

I hope this clarifies things a bit.

btw, we don't have "usb: dwc3: gadget: conditionally remove requests" in our baseline
