Sarah Sharp 41e7e056cd USB: Allow USB 3.0 ports to be disabled.
If hot and warm reset fails, or a port remains in the Compliance Mode,
the USB core needs to be able to disable a USB 3.0 port.  Unlike USB 2.0
ports, once the port is placed into the Disabled link state, it will not
report any new device connects.  To get device connect notifications, we
need to put the link into the Disabled state, and then the RxDetect
state.

The xHCI driver needs to atomically clear all change bits on USB 3.0
port disable, so that we get Port Status Change Events for future port
changes.  We could technically do this in the USB core instead of in the
xHCI roothub code, since the port state machine can't advance out of the
disabled state until we set the link state to RxDetect.  However,
external USB 3.0 hubs don't need this code.  They are level-triggered,
not edge-triggered like xHCI, so they will continue to send interrupt
events when any change bit is set.  Therefore it doesn't make sense to
put this code in the USB core.

This patch is part of a series to fix several reports of infinite loops
on device enumeration failure.  This includes John, when he boots with
a USB 3.0 device (Roseweil eusb3 enclosure) attached to his NEC 0.96
host controller.  The fix requires warm reset support, so it does not
make sense to backport this patch to stable kernels without warm reset
support.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, contain the
commit ID 75d7cf72ab9fa01dc70877aa5c68e8ef477229dc "usbcore: refine warm
reset logic"

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:

    * This source code.  This is necessarily an evolving work, and
      includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
      ("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
      "gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.)  Also, Documentation/usb has
      more information.

    * The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
      such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
      The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
      peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".

    * Chip specifications for USB controllers.  Examples include
      host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
      controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
      cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.

    * Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
      functions.  Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
      but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.

Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.

core/		- This is for the core USB host code, including the
		  usbfs files and the hub class driver ("khubd").

host/		- This is for USB host controller drivers.  This
		  includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
		  be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.

gadget/		- This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
		  the various gadget drivers which talk to them.


Individual USB driver directories.  A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.

image/		- This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
		  digital cameras.
../input/	- This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
		  like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/	- This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
		  radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
		  subsystem.
../net/		- This is for network drivers.
serial/		- This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/	- This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/		- This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
		  into any of the above categories, and work for a range
		  of USB Class specified devices. 
misc/		- This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
		  into any of the above categories.
