Modification to Kconfig, vhci_hc.c, vhci.h and vhci_sysfs.c.

1. kernel config

Followings are added.

USBIP_VHCI_HC_PORTS: Number of ports per USB/IP virtual host
controller. The default is 8 - same as current VHCI_NPORTS.
USBIP_VHCI_NR_HCS: Number of USB/IP virtual host controllers. The
default is 1. This paratmeter is replaced with USBIP_VHCI_INIT_HCS and
USBIP_VHCI_MAX_HCS included in succeeding dynamic extension patch.

2. the_controller to controllers

the_controller is changed to vhci_pdevs: array of struct
platform_device.

3. vhci_sysfs.c

Sysfs structure is changed as following.

BEFORE:
    /sys/devices/platform
        +-- vhci
            +-- status
            +-- attach
            +-- detach
            +-- usbip_debug

AFTER: example for CONFIG_USBIP_NR_HCS=4
    /sys/devices/platform
        +-- vhci
        |   +-- nports
        |   +-- status
        |   +-- status.1
        |   +-- status.2
        |   +-- status.3
        |   +-- attach
        |   +-- detach
        |   +-- usbip_debug
        +-- vhci.1
        +-- vhci.2
        +-- vhci.3

vhci[.N] is shown for each host controller kobj. vhch.1, vhci.2, ...
are shown only when CONFIG_USBIP_NR_HCS is more than 1. Only 'vhci'
(without number) has user space interfaces. 'nports' is newly added to
give ports-per-controller and number of controlles. Before that, number
of ports is acquired by reading status lines. Status is divided for
each controller to avoid page size (4KB) limitation.

Old userspace tool binaries work with the first status within the first
controller.

Inconsistency between status header and content is fixed.
4th and 5th column are
header:          "dev bus"
content(unused): "000 000"
content(used):   "%08x", devid
Only 1st and 2nd column are used by program. In old version, sscanf()
in parse_status expect no bus column. And bus_id string is shown in the
last column. Then bus in the header is removed and unused content is
replaced with 8 zeros. The sscanf() expects more than 5 columns and new
has 6 columns so there's no compatibility issue in this change.

Since commit 71723f95 "PM / runtime: print error when activating a
child to unactive parent" I see the following error message:

scsi host2: usb-storage 1-3:1.0
scsi host2: runtime PM trying to activate child device host2 but parent
	    (1-3:1.0) is not active

Digging into it it seems to be related to the problem described in the
commit message for cd998ded "i2c: designware: Prevent runtime
suspend during adapter registration" as scsi_add_host also calls
device_add and after the call to device_add the parent device is
suspended.

Fix this by using the approach from the mentioned commit and getting
the runtime pm reference before calling scsi_add_host.

The driver enforces a strict one-to-one relationship between the
received RESPONSE_AVAILABLE notifications and messages read from
the device. At the same time, it will cancel the interrupt URB
when there is no client holding the character device open.

Many devices do not cope well with this behaviour.  They maintain
a FIFO queue of messages, and send notifications on a best effort
basis.  Messages are queued regardless of whether the notification
is successful or not. So if the driver loses a single notification,
which can easily happen when the interrupt URB is cancelled, then
the device and driver becomes out-of-sync. New messages end up
at the end of the queue, while the associated notification makes
the driver read only the first message from the queue.

This state is permanent from a user point of view. There is no
no way to flush the device queue without resetting the device or
using another driver.

The problem is easy to hit with current QMI and MBIM command line
tools, which typically close the character device after seeing
the reply they expect. Any pending unsolicited messages from the
device will then trigger the driver bug.

Fix by always reading all queued messages from the device when
the notification URB is first submitted.  This is expected to
end with an -EPIPE status when there are no more pending
messages, so demote the printk associated with -EPIPE to debug
level.

The workaround has been tested on a large number of different MBIM
and QMI devices, as well as the Ericsson F5521gw and H5321gw modems
with real Device Management functions.

The status workqueue is involved in initializing the Uxxx and polling
the Uxxx until a supported PCMCIA CardBus device is detected.
It then starts the command and respond workqueues and then loads the
module that handles the device, after which it just polls the Uxxx
looking for card ejects.

The command and respond workqueues are involved in implementing a command
sequencer for communicating with the firmware on the other side of
the FTDI chip in the Uxxx.

These workqueues have only a single work item each and hence they do not
require ordering. Also, none of the above workqueues are being used on a
memory recliam path. Hence, the singlethreaded workqueues have been
replaced with the use of system_wq.

System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.

The work items have been sync cancelled because they are self-requeueing
and need to wait for the in-flight work item to finish before proceeding
with destruction. Hence, they have been sync cancelled in
ftdi_status_cancel_work(), ftdi_command_cancel_work() and
ftdi_response_cancel_work(). These functions are called in
ftdi_elan_exit() to ensure that there are no pending work items while
disconnecting the driver.

This is a minimal driver to support bringing a usb4604 device
from microchip out of reset and into hub mode. The usb4604 device
is related to the usb3503 device, but it didn't seem close enough
to warrant putting both into the same file. This patch borrows
some of the usb3503 structure and trims it down to just handle
the optional reset gpio and adds the i2c command to put the
device into hub mode.

rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break

Pull more xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
 "This is the second part of the XFS updates for this merge cycle, and
  contains the new reverse block mapping feature for XFS.

  Reverse mapping allows us to track the owner of a specific block on
  disk precisely.  It is implemented as a set of btrees (one per
  allocation group) that track the owners of allocated extents.
  Effectively it is a "used space tree" that is updated when we allocate
  or free extents.  i.e. it is coherent with the free space btrees we
  already maintain and never overlaps with them.

  This reverse mapping infrastructure is the building block of several
  upcoming features - reflink, copy-on-write data, dedupe, online
  metadata and data scrubbing, highly accurate bad sector/data loss
  reporting to users, and significantly improved reconstruction of
  damaged and corrupted filesystems.  There's a lot of new stuff coming
  along in the next couple of cycles,a nd it all builds in the rmap
  infrastructure.

  As such, it's a huge chunk of new code with new on-disk format
  features and internal infrastructure.  It warns at mount time as an
  experimental feature and that it may eat data (as we do with all new
  on-disk features until they stabilise).  We have not released
  userspace suport for it yet - userspace support currently requires
  download from Darrick's xfsprogs repo and build from source, so the
  access to this feature is really developer/tester only at this point.
  Initial userspace support will be released at the same time kernel
  with this code in it is released.

  The new rmap enabled code regresses 3 xfstests - all are ENOSPC
  related corner cases, one of which Darrick posted a fix for a few
  hours ago.  The other two are fixed by infrastructure that is part of
  the upcoming reflink patchset.  This new ENOSPC infrastructure
  requires a on-disk format tweak required to keep mount times in
  check - we need to keep an on-disk count of allocated rmapbt blocks so
  we don't have to scan the entire btrees at mount time to count them.

  This is currently being tested and will be part of the fixes sent in
  the next week or two so users will not be exposed to this change"

     propagate the block types outside of block.  That, and a rename of
     bio->bi_rw is coming right after -rc1 is cut.
