On Dell XPS 13 9360/0596KF, BIOS 2.21.0 06/02/2022, with Linux
6.9-rc2+ 

Just for the record, I am still seeing this with 6.14.0-rc1

Is this a regression? If so, which versions were not affected?
How hard to reproduce? Wasn't it during resume from hibernation?

IRQ isuses may be a red herring, this code here is a busy wait under
spinlock. There are a few of those, they cause various problems.

                if (xhci_handshake(&xhci->op_regs->status,
                              STS_RESTORE, 0, 100 * 1000)) {
                        xhci_warn(xhci, "WARN: xHC restore state timeout\n");
			spin_unlock_irq(&xhci->lock);
                        return -ETIMEDOUT;
                }

This thing timing out may be close to the root cause of everything.
