    xhci: Add new short TX quirk for Fresco Logic host. · 1530bbc6

    Sergio reported that when he recorded audio from a USB headset mic
    plugged into the USB 3.0 port on his ASUS N53SV-DH72, the audio sounded
    "robotic".  When plugged into the USB 2.0 port under EHCI on the same
    laptop, the audio sounded fine.  The device is:
    
    Bus 002 Device 004: ID 046d:0a0c Logitech, Inc. Clear Chat Comfort USB Headset
    
    The problem was tracked down to the Fresco Logic xHCI host controller
    not correctly reporting short transfers on isochronous IN endpoints.
    The driver would submit a 96 byte transfer, the device would only send
    88 or 90 bytes, and the xHCI host would report the transfer had a
    "successful" completion code, with an untransferred buffer length of 8
    or 6 bytes.
    
    The successful completion code and non-zero untransferred length is a
    contradiction.  The xHCI host is supposed to only mark a transfer as
    successful if all the bytes are transferred.  Otherwise, the transfer
    should be marked with a short packet completion code.  Without the EHCI
    bus trace, we wouldn't know whether the xHCI driver should trust the
    completion code or the untransferred length.  With it, we know to trust
    the untransferred length.
    
    Add a new xHCI quirk for the Fresco Logic host controller.  If a
    transfer is reported as successful, but the untransferred length is
    non-zero, print a warning.  For the Fresco Logic host, change the
    completion code to COMP_SHORT_TX and process the transfer like a short
    transfer.
    
    This should be backported to stable kernels that contain the commit
    f5182b41 "xhci: Disable MSI for some
    Fresco Logic hosts."  That commit was marked for stable kernels as old
    as 2.6.36.
