[PATCH] USB: Remove unneeded and error-provoking variable in UHCI
This patch removes an unneeded "status" field from the UHCI driver's URB-private data structure. The driver had been storing the status of completed URBs there rather than in the URBs themselves. This not only is wasteful of space but is also a cause of bugs, since the USB core relies on urb->status for proper synchronization with the driver. The patch also takes care of a number of small things that have been bugging me for ages: Close a small loophole by allowing an URB to be unlinked even before the uhci_urb_enqueue() procedure has started. Remove some fossil code from back when interrupt URBs were automagically resubmitted. Giveback unlinked URBs in the order they were unlinked. Don't set urb->status for dequeued URBs; the core has already set it for us. Rename uhci_remove_pending_qhs to uhci_remove_pending_urbps. (That has _really_ bothered me!)
