Jason Wessel 917778267f USB: ehci-dbgp: stability improvements and external re-init
This patch implements several changes:

1) Improve the capability to debug the dbgp driver

   The dbgp_ehci_status() was added in a number of places to report
   the critical ehci registers to diagnose the cause of a failure of
   the ehci-dbgp driver.

2) Capability to survive the host controller initialization

   The dbgp_external_startup(), dbgp_not_safe, and dbgp_phys_port were
   added so as to allow the ehci-dbgp to re-initialize after the ehci
   host controller is reset by the standard host controller driver.
   This same routine is common for the early startup or
   re-initialization.

   This resulted in the need to move some of the initialization code
   out of the __init section because the ehci driver has the
   possibility to be loaded later on as a kernel module.

3) Stability improvements for device initialization

   The device enumeration from 0 to 127 has the possibility to fail
   the first time after a warm reset on some older EHCI debug
   controllers.  The enumeration will be tried up to 3 times to
   account for this failure case.

   The dbg_wait_until_complete() was changed to wait up to 250 ms
   before failing which only comes into play during device
   initialization. The maximum delay will never get hit during the
   course of normal operation of the driver, unless the device got
   unplugged or there was a ehci controller failure, in which case the
   dbgp device driver will shut itself down.

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.
