Bill Kuzeja 8de66b0e6a xhci: Prevent deadlock when xhci adapter breaks during init 
The system can hit a deadlock if an xhci adapter breaks while initializing.
The deadlock is between two threads: thread 1 is tearing down the
adapter and is stuck in usb_unlocked_disable_lpm waiting to lock the
hcd->handwidth_mutex. Thread 2 is holding this mutex (while still trying
to add a usb device), but is stuck in xhci_endpoint_reset waiting for a
stop or config command to complete. A reboot is required to resolve.

It turns out when calling xhci_queue_stop_endpoint and
xhci_queue_configure_endpoint in xhci_endpoint_reset, the return code is
not checked for errors. If the timing is right and the adapter dies just
before either of these commands get issued, we hang indefinitely waiting
for a completion on a command that didn't get issued.

This wasn't a problem before the following fix because we didn't send
commands in xhci_endpoint_reset:

commit f5249461b5 ("xhci: Clear the host side toggle manually when
    endpoint is soft reset")

With the patch I am submitting, a duration test which breaks adapters
during initialization (and which deadlocks with the standard kernel) runs
without issue.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
