The Capability registers looks fine, so does port status registers.
It's just the operational USBSTS and USBCMD registers that return 0.

Current xhci implementation assumes host failed to halt because USBSTS
HCHalted bit is still 0, and bails out before reset.
Host is probably not running, register just returns all zero.

Can you try if the below code works, it checks if host is running from
an additional place, and continues with the host reset.
