xhci: Enable LPM support only for hardwired or BESL devices
Some usb3 devices falsely claim they support usb2 hardware Link PM when connected to a usb2 port. We only trust hardwired devices or devices with the later BESL LPM support to be LPM enabled as default. [Note: Sarah re-worked the original patch to move the code into the USB core, and updated it to check whether the USB device supports BESL, instead of checking if the xHCI port it's connected to supports BESL encoding.] This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.11, that contain the commit a558ccdc "usb: xhci: add USB2 Link power management BESL support". Without this fix, some USB 3.0 devices will not enumerate or work properly under USB 2.0 ports on Haswell-ULT systems.
