Ok, good to know.  Greg, is your USB tree still open for feature
requests?  I wouldn't normally send you usb-next requests so late, but
this is pretty simple patch to extend a feature that's already in your
usb-next tree.

You need the USB 2.0 spec errata from 2011-11 that describes the changes
made for BESL as well.  It's in the USB2-LPM-Errata-final.pdf and
USB2_LinkPowerMangement_ECN[final].pdf files in this zip file:

I agree though, it's all a confusing mess for documentation on USB 2.0
Link PM.
