[ Upstream commit 6bb47e8ab98accb1319bd43c64966340ba3bba9a ]

Memory leak and unbalanced reference count:

If the hub gets disconnected while the core is still activating it, this
can result in leaking memory of few USB structures.

This will happen if we have done a kref_get() from hub_activate() and
scheduled a delayed work item for HUB_INIT2/3. Now if hub_disconnect()
gets called before the delayed work expires, then we will cancel the
work from hub_quiesce(), but wouldn't do a kref_put(). And so the
unbalance.

kmemleak reports this as (with the commit e50293ef9775 backported to
3.10 kernel with other changes, though the same is true for mainline as
well):

Deadlocks:

If the hub gets disconnected early enough (i.e. before INIT2/INIT3 are
finished and the init_work is still queued), the core may call
hub_quiesce() after acquiring interface device locks and it will wait
for the work to be cancelled synchronously. But if the work handler is
already running in parallel, it may try to acquire the same interface
device lock and this may result in deadlock.

Fix both the issues by removing the call to cancel_delayed_work_sync().

Like other buggy models that had their fixes [1], the touchscreen with
id 04f3:21b8 from ELAN Microelectronics needs the device-qualifier
quirk. Otherwise, it fails to respond, blocks the boot for a random
amount of time and pollutes dmesg with:

<title>USB: don't free bandwidth_mutex too early</title>

[ Upstream commit ab2a4bf83902c170d29ba130a8abb5f9d90559e1 ]

The USB core contains a bug that can show up when a USB-3 host
controller is removed.  If the primary (USB-2) hcd structure is
released before the shared (USB-3) hcd, the core will try to do a
double-free of the common bandwidth_mutex.

The problem was described in graphical form by Chung-Geol Kim, who
first reported it:

                           |__________________|

=================================================

This happens because hcd_release() frees the bandwidth_mutex whenever
it sees a primary hcd being released (which is not a very good idea
in any case), but in the course of releasing the primary hcd, it
changes the pointers in the shared hcd in such a way that the shared
hcd will appear to be primary when it gets released.

This patch fixes the problem by changing hcd_release() so that it
deallocates the bandwidth_mutex only when the _last_ hcd structure
referencing it is released.  The patch also removes an unnecessary
test, so that when an hcd is released, both the shared_hcd and
primary_hcd pointers in the hcd's peer will be cleared.

                           |__________________|

=================================================

This happens because hcd_release() frees the bandwidth_mutex whenever
it sees a primary hcd being released (which is not a very good idea
in any case), but in the course of releasing the primary hcd, it
changes the pointers in the shared hcd in such a way that the shared
hcd will appear to be primary when it gets released.

This patch fixes the problem by changing hcd_release() so that it
deallocates the bandwidth_mutex only when the _last_ hcd structure
referencing it is released.  The patch also removes an unnecessary
test, so that when an hcd is released, both the shared_hcd and
primary_hcd pointers in the hcd's peer will be cleared.

[ Upstream commit 32cb0b37098f4beeff5ad9e325f11b42a6ede56c ]

The Acer C120 LED Projector is a USB-3 connected pico projector which
takes both its power and video data from USB-3.

In combination with some hubs this device does not play well with
lpm, so disable lpm for it.

<title>USB: leave LPM alone if possible when binding/unbinding interface drivers</title>

[ Upstream commit 6fb650d43da3e7054984dc548eaa88765a94d49f ]

When a USB driver is bound to an interface (either through probing or
by claiming it) or is unbound from an interface, the USB core always
disables Link Power Management during the transition and then
re-enables it afterward.  The reason is because the driver might want
to prevent hub-initiated link power transitions, in which case the HCD
would have to recalculate the various LPM parameters.  This
recalculation takes place when LPM is re-enabled and the new
parameters are sent to the device and its parent hub.

However, if the driver does not want to prevent hub-initiated link
power transitions then none of this work is necessary.  The parameters
don't need to be recalculated, and LPM doesn't need to be disabled and
re-enabled.

It turns out that disabling and enabling LPM can be time-consuming,
enough so that it interferes with user programs that want to claim and
release interfaces rapidly via usbfs.  Since the usbfs kernel driver
doesn't set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag, we can speed things up
and get the user programs to work by leaving LPM alone whenever the
flag isn't set.

And while we're improving the way disable_hub_initiated_lpm gets used,
let's also fix its kerneldoc.

<title>usb: core: hub: hub_port_init lock controller instead of bus</title>

[ Upstream commit feb26ac31a2a5cb88d86680d9a94916a6343e9e6 ]

The XHCI controller presents two USB buses to the system - one for USB2
and one for USB3. The hub init code (hub_port_init) is reentrant but
only locks one bus per thread, leading to a race condition failure when
two threads attempt to simultaneously initialise a USB2 and USB3 device:

[    8.034843] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: Timeout while waiting for setup device command
[   13.183701] usb 3-3: device descriptor read/all, error -110

On a test system this failure occurred on 6% of all boots.

The call traces at the point of failure are:

 [&lt;ffffffff810fa6f0&gt;] ? kthread_create_on_node+0x200/0x200

Which results from the two call chains:

hub_port_init
 usb_get_device_descriptor
  usb_get_descriptor
   usb_control_msg
    usb_internal_control_msg
     usb_start_wait_urb
      usb_submit_urb / wait_for_completion_timeout / usb_kill_urb

hub_port_init
 hub_set_address
  xhci_address_device
   xhci_setup_device

Mathias Nyman explains the current behaviour violates the XHCI spec:

 hub_port_reset() will end up moving the corresponding xhci device slot
 to default state.

 As hub_port_reset() is called several times in hub_port_init() it
 sounds reasonable that we could end up with two threads having their
 xhci device slots in default state at the same time, which according to
 xhci 4.5.3 specs still is a big no no:

 "Note: Software shall not transition more than one Device Slot to the
  Default State at a time"

 So both threads fail at their next task after this.
 One fails to read the descriptor, and the other fails addressing the
 device.

Fix this in hub_port_init by locking the USB controller (instead of an
individual bus) to prevent simultaneous initialisation of both buses.

[ Upstream commit e86103a75705c7c530768f4ffaba74cf382910f2 ]

On BXT platform Host Controller and Device Controller figure as
same PCI device but with different device function. HCD should
not pass data to Device Controller but only to Host Controllers.
Checking if companion device is Host Controller, otherwise skip.
