I've also applied the patch and was able to boot an odroid-xu4 with
it. I've got three of them used for the reproducible builds farm that
have been stuck on the 4.7.x kernel, so many thanks for identifying a
workaround! Will start using 4.9.x with this patch...

Unfortunately, there are numerous other boards using dwc3, so I'm not
sure this is a good idea...
