      HID: usbhid: improve handling of Clear-Halt and reset · 8f507ef5
      Alan Stern authored
      This patch changes the way usbhid carries out Clear-Halt and reset.
      
      Currently, after a Clear-Halt on the interrupt-IN endpoint, the driver
      immediately restarts the interrupt URB, even if the Clear-Halt failed.
      This doesn't work out well when the reason for the failure was that
      the device was disconnected (when a low- or full-speed device is
      connected through a hub to an EHCI controller, transfer errors caused
      by disconnection are reported as stalls by the hub).  Instead now the
      driver will attempt a reset after a failed Clear-Halt.
      
      The way resets are carried out is also changed.  Now the driver will
      call usb_queue_reset_device() instead of calling usb_reset_device()
      directly.  This avoids a deadlock that would arise when a device is
      unplugged: The hid_reset() routine runs as a workqueue item, a reset
      attempt after the device has been unplugged will fail, failure will
      cause usbhid to be unbound, and the disconnect routine will try to do
      cancel_work_sync().  The usb_queue_reset_device() implementation is
      carefully written to handle scenarios like this one properly.
