USB: Disable hub-initiated LPM for comms devices.

2012-05-18T22:42:55+00:00

Hub-initiated LPM is not good for USB communications devices.  Comms
devices should be able to tell when their link can go into a lower power
state, because they know when an incoming transmission is finished.
Ideally, these devices would slam their links into a lower power state,
using the device-initiated LPM, after finishing the last packet of their
data transfer.

If we enable the idle timeouts for the parent hubs to enable
hub-initiated LPM, we will get a lot of useless LPM packets on the bus
as the devices reject LPM transitions when they're in the middle of
receiving data.  Worse, some devices might blindly accept the
hub-initiated LPM and power down their radios while they're in the
middle of receiving a transmission.

The Intel Windows folks are disabling hub-initiated LPM for all USB
communications devices under a xHCI USB 3.0 host.  In order to keep
the Linux behavior as close as possible to Windows, we need to do the
same in Linux.

Set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag for for all USB communications
drivers.  I know there aren't currently any USB 3.0 devices that
implement these class specifications, but we should be ready if they do.

USB: ipheth.c: remove err() usage

2012-04-25T19:37:48+00:00

err() was a very old USB-specific macro that I thought had
gone away.  This patch removes it from being used in the
driver and uses dev_err() instead.

USB: convert drivers/net/* to use module_usb_driver()

2011-11-18T17:44:20+00:00

This converts the drivers in drivers/net/* to use the
module_usb_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

Added bonus is that it removes some unneeded kernel log messages about
drivers loading and/or unloading.

iph: use default get_stats

2011-06-09T00:05:29+00:00

This driver keeps stats in net_device stats therefore it
does not need to define it's own get_stats hook.

Also, use standard format for net_device_ops (without &).

ipheth: Properly distinguish length and alignment in URBs and skbs

2011-05-08T22:45:13+00:00

The USB protocol this driver implements appears to require 2 bytes of
padding in front of each received packet.  This used to be equal to
the value of NET_IP_ALIGN on x86, so the driver abused that constant
and mostly worked, but this is no longer the case.  The driver also
mixed up the URB and packet lengths, resulting in 2 bytes of junk at
the end of the skb.

Introduce a private constant for the 2 bytes of padding; fix this
confusion and check for the under-length case.
