Could you please test with:

static int dwc2_drd_role_sw_set(struct device *dev, enum usb_role role)
{
	struct dwc2_hsotg *hsotg = dev_get_drvdata(dev);
	unsigned long flags;
	int already = 0;

	/* Skip session not in line with dr_mode */
	if ((role == USB_ROLE_DEVICE && hsotg->dr_mode == USB_DR_MODE_HOST) ||
	    (role == USB_ROLE_HOST && hsotg->dr_mode == USB_DR_MODE_PERIPHERAL))
		return -EINVAL;

	/* Skip session if core is in test mode */
	if (role == USB_ROLE_NONE && hsotg->test_mode) {
		dev_dbg(hsotg->dev, "Core is in test mode\n");
		return -EBUSY;
	}

	spin_lock_irqsave(&hsotg->lock, flags);

	if (role == USB_ROLE_HOST) {
		already = dwc2_ovr_avalid(hsotg, true);
	} else if (role == USB_ROLE_DEVICE) {
		already = dwc2_ovr_bvalid(hsotg, true);
		/* This clear DCTL.SFTDISCON bit */
		dwc2_hsotg_core_connect(hsotg);
	} else {
		if (dwc2_is_device_mode(hsotg)) {
		    if (!dwc2_ovr_bvalid(hsotg, false))
			/* This set DCTL.SFTDISCON bit */
			dwc2_hsotg_core_disconnect(hsotg);
		} else {
			dwc2_ovr_avalid(hsotg, false);
		}
	}

	spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hsotg->lock, flags);

	if (!already &&
	    role != USB_ROLE_NONE && hsotg->dr_mode == USB_DR_MODE_OTG)
		/* This will raise a Connector ID Status Change Interrupt */
		dwc2_force_mode(hsotg, role == USB_ROLE_HOST);

	dev_dbg(hsotg->dev, "%s-session valid\n",
		role == USB_ROLE_NONE ? "No" :
		role == USB_ROLE_HOST ? "A" : "B");

	return 0;
}


dwc2_force_mode is called outside the spin_lock_irqsave so the kernel 
should not complain. I've tested on my setup and the behavior seems the 
same.

Amelie
