This patch (as871) fixes a problem introduced by an earlier change.
It turns out that some systems really do need to have a terminating
skeleton QH present whenever FSBR is on. I don't know any way to tell
which systems do need it and which don't; the easiest answer is to
have it there always.
This fixes the NumLock-hang bug reported by Jiri Slaby.

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.

Isochronous queues don't need a dummy TD because the Queue Header
isn't managed by the hardware. This patch (as836) removes the
unnecessary dummy TDs.
The patch also fixes a long-standing typo in a comment (a "don't" was
missing -- potentially very confusing!).

This patch (as768) improves the debugging checks for the uhci-hcd
frame list. The number of entries displayed is limited to 10, and the
driver now checks for the correct Skeleton QH link value at the end of
each chain of Isochronous TDs. The code to compute these link values
is now used in two spots, so it is moved into its own separate
subroutine.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

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 (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.

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 (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 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!
