[PATCH 0/3] xhci: ring queuing cleanups

Hi,

I was looking at all uses of enqueue/dequeue pointers and I found two
rather complex loops which appear to be doing really simple things.

I don't understand why they were written this way, it seems wasteful
and I see nothing that should go wrong if they are replaced with much
simpler code.

I rewrote them and the driver still works. I exercised Set TR Dequeue
code by starting/stopping isoc streams, using usb-storage with crappy
cable (transaction errors, halts) and also the smartctl -x trick that
results in URB unlinks (both on usb-storage and uas) with some disks.

The third patch is a dedupe. BTW, that comment there about section
6.4.4.1 of the 0.95 spec seems to be wrong, I suspect it should say
that the chain bit cannot be *cleared* because that's how the code
works and what some commit messages say. But I don't have 0.95 spec.

Regards,
Michal
