Get the USA out of the region and the strait will open fairly quickly, at least for ships that have no affiliation with the countries that just started this war.

And I bet Iran would quickly come to some understanding with Saudi Arabia. That understanding might be, "If you let the USA back in to rebuild those bases, we are going to blast them again. We will do our best not to hit any civilian facilities or people. Our fight is not with you. It is with the Great Satan."
