Sarah Sharp 585df1d90c xhci: Remove TDs from TD lists when URBs are canceled.
When a driver tries to cancel an URB, and the host controller is dying,
xhci_urb_dequeue will giveback the URB without removing the xhci_tds
that comprise that URB from the td_list or the cancelled_td_list.  This
can cause a race condition between the driver calling URB dequeue and
the stop endpoint command watchdog timer.

If the timer fires on a dying host, and a driver attempts to resubmit
while the watchdog timer has dropped the xhci->lock to giveback a
cancelled URB, URBs may be given back by the xhci_urb_dequeue() function.
At that point, the URB's priv pointer will be freed and set to NULL, but
the TDs will remain on the td_list.  This will cause an oops in
xhci_giveback_urb_in_irq() when the watchdog timer attempts to loop
through the endpoints' td_lists, giving back killed URBs.

Make sure that xhci_urb_dequeue() removes TDs from the TD lists and
canceled TD lists before it gives back the URB.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.36.

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.
