Since commit 06e15e6883bed ("PCI: dwc: Clear MSI interrupt status after
it is handled, not before"), MSI IRQ status in PCIE_MSI_INTR0_STATUS
register is cleared after calling EP's IRQ handler.
But, MSI IRQs in case of PCIe are bit like edge interrupts. If a
another MSI IRQ is raised and the end of current EP's IRQ handler call
but before clearing the MSI IRQ status in PCIE_MSI_INTR0_STATUS register
then the new MSI IRQ is lost.

This issue has been observed in case of USB-Ethernet adapter connected
to PCIe USB card running iperf3 test. iperf3 client stalls after
sometime as reported here[1]. This is because XHCI raises MSI IRQ at the
end of its IRQ handler but before PCIe driver has cleared its status
in PCIE_MSI_INTR0_STATUS register. Hence, the new IRQ is never
registered by PCIe designware core. Since, XHCI does not raise any more
IRQs until the previous one is handled, it leads to a stall in
communication.
Therefore driver should always clear the MSI IRQ status in
PCIE_MSI_INTR0_STATUS before calling EP's IRQ handler. This make sure
that DW PCIe core catches new IRQ raised during the call to EP's IRQ
handler

Small nit, the SHA1 is actually:
