Clean up the throttle implementation by dropping the redundant
throttle_req flag which was a remnant from back when there was only a
single read URB.

Also convert the throttled flag to an atomic bit flag.

<id>3f5edd58d040bfa4b74fb89bc02f0bc6b9cd06ab</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix two long-standing bugs which could potentially lead to memory
corruption or leave the port throttled until it is reopened (on weakly
ordered systems), respectively, when read-URB completion races with
unthrottle().

First, the URB must not be marked as free before processing is complete
to prevent it from being submitted by unthrottle() on another CPU.

	CPU 1				CPU 2
	================		================
	complete()			unthrottle()
	  process_urb();
	  smp_mb__before_atomic();
	  set_bit(i, free);		  if (test_and_clear_bit(i, free))
	  					  submit_urb();

Second, the URB must be marked as free before checking the throttled
flag to prevent unthrottle() on another CPU from failing to observe that
the URB needs to be submitted if complete() sees that the throttled flag
is set.

	CPU 1				CPU 2
	================		================
	complete()			unthrottle()
	  set_bit(i, free);		  throttled = 0;
	  smp_mb__after_atomic();	  smp_mb();
	  if (throttled)		  if (test_and_clear_bit(i, free))
	  	  return;			  submit_urb();

Note that test_and_clear_bit() only implies barriers when the test is
successful. To handle the case where the URB is still in use an explicit
barrier needs to be added to unthrottle() for the second race condition.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

<title>USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/</title>

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct
SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself.
The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
instead of the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

This patch turns status in a variable read once from the URB.
The long term plan is to deliver status to the callback.
In addition it makes the code a bit more elegant.
