The fix for the rcar_gen3_init_otg function has not been backported to
the 5.10-stable branch, which leads to a "scheduling while atomic" bug
in that branch:

rcar_gen3_phy_usb2_init() ← phy_init() callback
→ guard(spinlock_irqsave)(&ch->lock) ← acquires spinlock, disabling preemption + IRQs
→ rcar_gen3_init_otg(ch)
→ msleep(20) ← BUG: scheduling while atomic!

The patch for 5.10 is available at the following link:
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/? h=linux-5.10.y&id=0f86a559900fbe96af08a3a226a86fac27b02b8f

Perhaps the stable patch for the 5.10 branch needs to be updated to
fix this serious bug?

Sasha applied today the patch at [1] to solve this problem on v5.10.

Thank you,
Claudiu
