<title>USB: xhci: Set route string for all devices.</title>

The xHCI driver needs to set the route string in the slot context of all
devices, not just SuperSpeed devices.  The route string concept was added
in the USB 3.0 specification, section 10.1.3.2.  Each hub in the topology
is expected to have no more than 15 ports in order for the route string of
a device to be unique.  SuperSpeed hubs are restricted to only having 15
ports, but FS/LS/HS hubs are not.  The xHCI specification says that if the
port number the device is under is greater than 15, that portion of the
route string shall be set to 15.

usb_buffer_map_sg should return negative on error according to
its documentation. But dma_map_sg returns 0 on error. Take this
into account and return -ENOMEM in such situation.

While at it, return -EINVAL instead of -1 when wrong input is
passed in.

If this wasn't done, usb_sg_* operations used after usb_sg_init
which returned 0 may cause oopses/deadlocks since we don't init
structures/entries, esp. completion and status entry.

<title>Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissions</title>

This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.

<title>USB: Support for addressing a USB device under xHCI</title>

<content type='text'>
Add host controller driver API and a slot_id variable to struct
usb_device.  This allows the xHCI host controller driver to ask the
hardware to allocate a slot for the device when a struct usb_device is
allocated.  The slot needs to be allocated at that point because the
hardware can run out of internal resources, and we want to know that very
early in the device connection process.  Don't call this new API for root
hubs, since they aren't real devices.

Add HCD API to let the host controller choose the device address.  This is
especially important for xHCI hardware running in a virtualized
environment.  The guests running under the VM don't need to know which
addresses on the bus are taken, because the hardware picks the address for
them.  Announce SuperSpeed USB devices after the address has been assigned
by the hardware.

Don't use the new get descriptor/set address scheme with xHCI.  Unless
special handling is done in the host controller driver, the xHC can't
issue control transfers before you set the device address.  Support for
the older addressing scheme will be added when the xHCI driver supports
the Block Set Address Request (BSR) flag in the Address Device command.

This patch adds a hex route string to each USB device.  The route string is used
by the USB 3.0 host controller to send packets through the device tree.  USB 3.0
hubs use this string to route packets to the correct port.  This is fundamental
bus change from USB 2.0, where all packets were broadcast across the bus.

Devices (including hubs) under a root port receive the route string 0x0.  Every
four bits in the route string represent a port on a hub.  This length works
because USB 3.0 hubs are limited to 15 ports, and USB 2.0 hubs (with potentially
more ports) will never see packets with a route string.  A port number of 0
means the packet is destined for that hub.

For example, a peripheral device might have a route string of 0x00097.
This means the device is connected to port 9 of the hub at depth 1.
The hub at depth 1 is connected to port 7 of a hub at depth 0.
The hub at depth 0 is connected to a root port.

The endpoint devices look like simple attribute groups now, and no longer
like devices with a specific subsystem. They will also no longer emit uevents.

It also removes the device node requests for endpoint devices, which are not
implemented for now.

People are very used to the devices file in usbfs.  Now that we have
moved usbfs to be an "embedded" option only, the developers miss the
file, they had grown quite attached to it over all of these years.  This
patch brings it back and puts it in the usb debugfs directory, so that
the developers don't feel sad anymore.
