what is "them" here ? The duration of what is longer than 20ms ?

what's SPM ?

no, this is the wrong approach

right, which means you're not really fixing anything. Morevoer, you make
it so that this won't work with multiple instances of the XHCI IP in
your SoC.

another problem :) calling local_irq_{enable,disable}() is an indication
that something's wrong.

now, what happens when you have more than one XHCI instance ?
