 Hello NetBSD team,
 
 I performed additional testing the get more information regarding this
 issue. I tried to boot different BSDs and compare drivers
 (unfortunately all BSDs seem to have their own take on xhci driver).
 OpenBSD shares exactly the same issue with the freezing system on
 their counterpart of xhci_op_write_4(sc, XHCI_USBCMD,
 XHCI_CMD_INTE|XHCI_CMD_RS); call (XOWRITE4(sc, XHCI_USBCMD,
 XHCI_CMD_INTE|XHCI_CMD_RS);). FreeBSD boots and identifies USB devices
 properly on the other hand. So it can be some kind of reference to
 investigate the cause (but I am not sure yet where to look). They
 execute it a bit differently (XWRITE4(sc, oper, XHCI_USBCMD,
 XHCI_CMD_RS | XHCI_CMD_INTE | XHCI_CMD_HSEE);) but it's not the cause
 of the problem. Coincidentally I have same usb3 controller on one
 lenovo laptop (or at least identification message is the same up to
 revision) but it boots NetBSD and identifies USB devices properly. So
 in the end it seems the problem is caused by something before
 initialization of the controller (device information/memory?). Any
 clues where can I look or what information can I provide? Thank you.
 
 Regards,
 Andrius V
