One thought I had was whether you've considered splitting this patch series into several smaller, targeted series, for
instance, one covering code optimizations, and separate series for distinct groups of bug fixes. This would keep each
series lean and easier for maintainers to review.

On the dwc3 core changes, based on Rockchip's internal testing and experience, runtime suspend does not kick in as
intended during hotplug events. The dwc3 core uses a default autosuspend delay of 5 seconds (defined as
DWC3_DEFAULT_AUTOSUSPEND_DELAY). I think we can try to make this parameter configurable via device tree properties, as
this approach would result in a smaller, less invasive change overall.
