Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 00/12] usb: early: add support for early printk through
 USB3 debug port

Hi Dave,

Which device are you testing with? This implementation was developed
and tested on Intel Skylake devices.

It doesn't surprise me if it doesn't work with other silicons. But it do
remind me to create a verified-list and put those known-to-work devices
in it.

Thanks,
Baolu
