USB: don't send Set-Interface after reset
This patch (as1221) changes the way usbcore reinitializes a device following a reset or a reset-resume. Currently we call usb_set_interface() for every interface in the active configuration; this is to put the interface into the same altsetting as before the reset and to make sure that the host's endpoint state matches the device's endpoint state. However, sending a Set-Interface request is a waste of time if an interface was already in altsetting 0 before the reset, since it is certainly in altsetting 0 afterward. In addition, many devices can't handle Set-Interface requests -- they crash when they receive them. So instead, the patch adds code to check each interface. If the interface wasn't in altsetting 0 before the reset, we go head with the Set-Interface request as before. But if it was then we skip sending the Set-Interface request, and we clear out the host-side endpoint state by calling usb_disable_interface() followed by usb_enable_interface(). The patch also adds a couple of new comments to explain what's going on. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
