USB: Introduce usb_queue_reset() to do resets from atomic contexts
This patch introduces a new call to be able to do a USB reset from an atomic contect. This is quite helpful in USB callbacks to handle errors (when the only thing that can be done is to do a device reset). It is done queuing a work struct that will do the actual reset. The struct is "attached" to an interface so pending requests from an interface are removed when said interface is unbound from the driver. The call flow then becomes: usb_queue_reset_device() __usb_queue_reset_device() [workqueue] usb_reset_device() usb_probe_interface() usb_cancel_queue_reset() [error path] usb_unbind_interface() usb_cancel_queue_reset() usb_driver_release_interface() usb_cancel_queue_reset() Note usb_cancel_queue_reset() needs smarts to try not to unqueue when it is actually being executed. This happens when we run the reset from the workqueue: usb_reset_device() is called and on interface unbind time, usb_cancel_queue_reset() would be called. That would deadlock on cancel_work_sync(). To avoid that, we set (before running usb_reset_device()) usb_intf->reset_running and clear it inmediately after returning. Patch is against 2.6.28-rc2 and depends on http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=122581634925308&w=2 (as submitted by Alan Stern).
