This doesn't fix any commit as such, but adds the support for 
XHCI_SG_TRB_CACHE_SIZE_QUIRK (which is present in XHCI layer) to DWC3 
layer. I have CC'ed stable kernel for this to be back-ported to older 
kernels (#5.11).

We are intending to use this quirk for all the dwc3 based devices since 
the DWC3 XHC needs it. If the entry is not present then we will hit 
stall if certain conditions aren't met (have mentioned the condition in 
commit text).
