Without patch unloading the dwc3-of-simple module went stuck after
successfully removing hcd.1 during the hcd.0 removal:
root@LEDE:/# rmmod dwc3-of-simple

followed by nothing.
Sometimes a stall CPU was detected, or a kernel panic,
or a reboot occurred after a couple of minutes.
At the same time unloading the dwc3 module followed by dwc3-of-simple
module was working repeatedly.

For the non-working case, the code was stuck in a readl() in
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/host/xhci.c#L91
because
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/dwc3/dwc3-of-simple.c#L126
was disabling the wrong clocks when removing hcd.1 (it was disabling
the clock of hcd.0). That's why the readl() went stuck when removing
hcd.0
The patch however addresses the clock assignment from the .dtsi
file. Most probably it went into openwrt here:
https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/ipq806x/patches-3.18/101-ARM-qcom-add-USB-nodes-to-ipq806x-ap148.patch?rev=45261
copied from Qualcomms attempt here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/20/116
Now unloading and repeated module loading is working just fine,
no matter if you'd remove dwc3-of-simple or dwc3.
