Hi Dave,

What I have done is:

(1) Build a new kernel for debug target with this patch series applied.
(2) Add "earlyprintk=xdbc" to the kernel option of debug target. The
      "keep" option for early printk doesn't support yet. (That's my next
      target.)

(3) Boot the debug host, and disable USB runtime suspend:

# echo on > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<xhci_pci_bus_name>/power/control
# echo on | tee /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control

(4) Boot the debug target. Check the dmesg message on debug host.

# tail -f /var/log/kern.log

pressing Enter key)
Press Y key, debug target should go ahead with boot and early boot 
messages should show in mincom.

So "the devie automaticlly disconnected and earlyprintk hangs" happens 
in which step?
