xHCI specification 5.1 "Register Conventions "states that 64 bit
registers should be written in low-high order

Any idea if this is a common issue with this host?
Should other 64 bit registers also be written in reverse order.

This may cause issues with other hosts expecting low-high order as stated
in the specification.

If all 64 bit registers should be written in high-low order for this host then
maybe set a quirk flag and change xhci_write_64()instead.

xhci_write_64(...)
{
	if (xhci->quirks & XHCI_WRITE_64_HI_LO)
		hi_lo_writeq(val, regs);
	else
		lo_hi_writeq(val, regs);
}
	

Thanks
