This patch introduces a new call to be able to do a USB reset from an
atomic contect. This is quite helpful in USB callbacks to handle
errors (when the only thing that can be done is to do a device
reset).
It is done queuing a work struct that will do the actual reset. The
struct is "attached" to an interface so pending requests from an
interface are removed when said interface is unbound from the driver.
The call flow then becomes:
usb_queue_reset_device()
__usb_queue_reset_device() [workqueue]
usb_reset_device()
usb_probe_interface()
usb_cancel_queue_reset() [error path]
usb_unbind_interface()
usb_cancel_queue_reset()
usb_driver_release_interface()
usb_cancel_queue_reset()
Note usb_cancel_queue_reset() needs smarts to try not to unqueue when
it is actually being executed. This happens when we run the reset from
the workqueue: usb_reset_device() is called and on interface unbind
time, usb_cancel_queue_reset() would be called. That would deadlock on
cancel_work_sync(). To avoid that, we set (before running
usb_reset_device()) usb_intf->reset_running and clear it inmediately
after returning.
Patch is against 2.6.28-rc2 and depends on

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("khubd").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
../net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
