Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] Fixes to the USB 3.0 detection as 2.0 on AMD platform

As the discussion in http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/107011,
I found that [AMD] FCH USB XHCI Controller [1022:7814] the USB 3.0 disk
can't work in SuperSpeed after several times of hotplug. After doing some
experiments and bisection, I found the bug is caused by
41e7e056cdc662f704fa9262e5c6e213b4ab45dd (USB: Allow USB 3.0 ports to be
disabled.). And the bug can be fixed by not executing the
hub_usb3_port_disable() function. I also found that the port status is
already in RxDetect before setting the port to Disabled in
hub_usb3_port_disable() function. So, there are 2 ways to fix the bug:

1) Check if the Vendor/Device id is [1022:7814] at the beginning of
hub_usb3_port_disable() function. If yes, return without executing the
remaining code.

2) Check if the port status is already in RxDetect, if yes, return without
executing the remaining code.

The second method seems more reasonable, so the patch is the implementation
of the second one. But it will affect more platforms and I don't know if
there'll be any negative result. Otherwise, if the first one is correct,
I can reimplement a new one.

I'm appreciated if you can give me some advice, or if there is any thing I
missed.

The v2 version has been tested on the 2 platforms which all use the same AMD
controller [1022:7814]. There are totally 3 ports. And each port has been
tested for 30 times of hot-plugging. All of the results showed the USB 3.0 pen
drive is Superspeed device.

Changes from v1 -> v2:
According to Alan's advice in: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/15/315
- Fixes the coding style.
- Modify the debug messages to "Not disabling port; link state is RxDetect"
to make it more expressive.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] usb: Check if port status is equal to RxDetect

When using USB 3.0 pen drive with the [AMD] FCH USB XHCI Controller
[1022:7814], the second hotplugging will experience the USB 3.0 pen
drive is recognized as high-speed device. After bisecting the kernel,
I found the commit number 41e7e056cdc662f704fa9262e5c6e213b4ab45dd
(USB: Allow USB 3.0 ports to be disabled.) causes the bug. After doing
some experiments, the bug can be fixed by avoiding executing the function
hub_usb3_port_disable(). Because the port status with [AMD] FCH USB
XHCI Controlleris [1022:7814] is already in RxDetect
(I tried printing out the port status before setting to Disabled state),
it's reasonable to check the port status before really executing
hub_usb3_port_disable().

Fixes: 41e7e056cdc6 (USB: Allow USB 3.0 ports to be disabled.)

I did not give you permission to add my Signed-off-by: line to this
patch. It wouldn't make any sense anyway, because I haven't merged the
patch.

However, you can add
