iMX6ULL has same QSPI controller revision with 6UL. I just checked their ROM codes,
the TDH will be set if the DDR mode is enabled in QSPI configuration parameters.
It won't be cleared by ROM.

Have you compared other registers like LUT and MCR DDR_EN?  Is the MCR DDR_EN set
When the TDH is cleared?

Our downstream kernel has fixed the issue, it is similar as this u-boot fix.
TDH must be set along with DDR_EN. I'm not this kernel driver owner, I will check
with him about the upstream of this fix.
