This patch (as856) attempts to improve the performance of uhci-hcd by
removing the asynchronous skeleton Queue Headers. They don't contain
any useful information but the controller has to read through them at
least once every millisecond, incurring a non-zero DMA overhead.
Now all the asynchronous queues are combined, along with the period-1
interrupt queue, into a single list with a single skeleton QH. The
start of the low-speed control, full-speed control, and bulk sublists
is determined by linear search. Since there should rarely be more
than a couple of QHs in the list, the searches should incur a much
smaller total load than keeping the skeleton QHs.

This patch (as707) improves the FSBR operation in uhci-hcd by turning it
off more quickly when it isn't needed. FSBR puts a noticeable load on a
computer's PCI bus, so it should be disabled as soon as possible when it
isn't in use. The patch leaves it running for only 10 ms after the last
URB stops using it, on the theory that this should be long enough for a
driver to submit another URB if it wants keep FSBR going.

This patch (as706) removes the private hc_inaccessible flag from
uhci-hcd. It's not needed because it conveys exactly the same
information as the generic HCD_FLAG_HW_ACCESSIBLE bit.
In its place goes a new flag recording whether the controller is dead.
The new code allows a complete device reset to resurrect a dead
controller (although usbcore doesn't yet implement such a facility).

This patch (as690) does the same thing for ISO TDs as as680 did for
non-ISO TDs: free them as they are used rather than all at once when an
URB is complete. At the same time it fixes a minor buglet (I'm not
aware of it ever affecting anyone): An ISO TD should be retired when its
frame is over, regardless of whether or not the hardware has marked it
inactive.

This patch (as689) stores the period for periodic transfers (interrupt
and ISO) in the queue header. This is necessary for proper bandwidth
tracking (not yet implemented). It also makes the scheduling of ISO
transfers a bit more rigorous, with checks for out-of-bounds frame
numbers.

This patch (as687) changes uhci-hcd to keep track of frame numbers as
full-sized integers rather than 11-bit values. This makes them a lot
easier to handle and makes it possible to schedule beyond a 2-second
window, should anyone ever want to do so.

This patch (as683) re-implements Full-Speed Bandwidth Reclamation (FSBR)
properly. It keeps track of which endpoint queues have advanced, and
when none have advanced for a sufficiently long time, FSBR is turned
off. The next TD on each of the non-moving queues is modified to
generate an interrupt on completion, so that FSBR can be re-enabled as
soon as the hardware starts to make some progress.

This patch (as682) gets rid of the TD-removal list in uhci-hcd. It is
no longer needed because now TDs are not freed until we know the
hardware isn't using them. It also simplifies the code for adding and
removing TDs to/from URBs.

This patch (as680) frees non-isochronous TDs as they are used, rather
than all at once when an URB is complete. Although not a terribly
important change in itself, it opens the door to a later enhancement
that will reduce storage requirements by allocating only a limited
number of TDs at any time for each endpoint queue.

Someone recently posted a bug report where it turned out that uhci-hcd
was disagreeing with the UHCI controller over whether or not a port was
suspended: The driver thought it wasn't and the hardware thought it was.
This patch (as665) fixes the problem and simplifies the driver by
removing the internal state-tracking completely. Now the driver just
asks the hardware whether a port is suspended.

This patch (as626) makes some improvements to the debugging code in
uhci-hcd. The main change is that now the code won't get compiled if
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG isn't set. But there are other changes too, like
adding a missing .owner field and printing a debugging dump if the
controller dies.

As part of reorienting uhci-hcd away from URBs and toward endpoint
queues, this patch (as625) eliminates the driver's main list of URBs.
The list wsa used mainly in checking for URB completions; now the driver
goes through the list of active endpoints and checks the members of the
queues.
As a side effect, I had to remove the code that looks for FSBR timeouts.
For now, FSBR will remain on so long as any URBs on a full-speed control
or bulk queue request it, even if the queue isn't advancing. A later
patch can add more intelligent handling. This isn't a huge drawback;
it's pretty rare for an URB to get stuck for more than a fraction of a
second. (And it will help the people trying to use those insane HP USB
devices.)

This patch (as624) fixes a hardware race in uhci-hcd by adding a dummy
TD to the end of each endpoint's queue. Without the dummy the host
controller will effectively turn off the queue when it reaches the end,
which happens asynchronously. This leads to a potential problem when
new transfer descriptors are added to the end of the queue; they may
never get used.
With a dummy TD present the controller never turns off the queue;
instead it just stops at the dummy and leaves the queue on but inactive.
When new TDs are added to the end of the queue, the first new one gets
written over the dummy. Thus there's never any question about whether
the queue is running or needs to be restarted.

This patch (as623) changes the uhci-hcd driver to make it use one QH per
device endpoint, instead of a QH per URB as it does now. Numerous areas
of the code are affected by this. For example, the distinction between
"queued" URBs and non-"queued" URBs no longer exists; all URBs belong to
a queue and some just happen to be at the queue's head.

This patch (as616) changed the uhci_explen macro in uhci-hcd.h so that
it now accepts the desired length, rather than length - 1 with special
handling for 0. This also fixes a minor bug that would show up only
when a driver submits a 0-length bulk URB.

This patch (as563) splits the physical and logical framelist arrays in
uhci-hcd into two separate pieces. This will allow slightly better memory
utilization, since each piece is no larger than a single page whereas
before the whole thing was a little bigger than two pages. It also allows
the logical array to be allocated in non-DMA-coherent memory.

This patch (as562) removes from the uhci-hcd driver a few unused fields
and some unnecessary tests against NULL and assignments to NULL. In fact
it wasn't until fairly recently that the tests became unnecessary.
Before last winter it was possible that the driver's stop() routine would
get called even if the start() routine returned an error, but now that
can't happen. Hence there's no longer any need to check for partial
initialization.

This patch simplifies the uhci-hcd driver by removing the device pointer
currently stored in the QH and TD structures. Those pointers weren't
being used for anything other than to increment the device's reference
count, which is unnecessary since the device is used only when an URB
completes, and outstanding URBs take their own reference to the device.
As a useful side effect, this change means that uhci-hcd no longer needs
to have the root-hub device available in the start routine.

This patch, which has as478b as a prerequisite, enables the uhci-hcd
driver to take advantage of root-hub IRQs rather than polling during the
time it is suspended. (Unfortunately the hardware doesn't support
port-change interrupts while the controller is running.) It also turns
off the driver's private timer while the controller is suspended, as it
isn't needed then. The combined elimination of polling interrupts and
timer interrupts ought to be enough to allow some systems to save a
noticeable amount of power while they are otherwise idle.

This patch implements (finally!) separate suspend and resume routines
for the root hub and the controller in the UHCI driver. It also
changes the sequence used to reset the controller during initial
probing, so as to preserve the existing state during a Resume-From-Disk.
(This new sequence is what should be used in the PCI Quirks code for
early USB handoffs, incidentally.) Lastly it adds a notion of the
controller being "inaccessible" while in a PCI low-power state, when
normal I/O operations shouldn't be allowed.

This patch starts making some serious changes to the UHCI driver.
There's a set of private states for the root hub, and the internal
routines for suspending and resuming work completely differently, with
transitions based on the new states. Now the driver distinguishes
between a privately auto-stopped state and a publicly suspended state,
and it will properly suspend controllers with broken resume-detect
interrupts instead of resetting them.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
