The USB4 Inter-Domain Service specification defines a protocol that can be used to establish lane bonding between two USB4 domains (hosts). So far we have not implemented it because the host controller DMA was not fast enough to be able to go over 20 Gbits/s even if lanes were bonded. However, starting from Intel Alder Lake CPUs the DMA can go over 20 Gbits/s so now it makes more sense to add this support to the driver. Because both ends need to negotiate the bonding we add a simple state machine that tracks the connection state and does the necessary steps described by the USB4 Inter-Domain Service specification. We only establish lane bonding when both sides of the link support it. Otherwise we default to use the single lane. Also this is only done when software connection manager is used. On systems with firmware based connection manager, it handles the high-speed tunneling so bonding lanes is specific to the implementation (Intel firmware based connection manager does not support lane bonding).
