Mike Looijmans 973593a960 usb: hub: Cycle HUB power when initialization fails
Sometimes the USB device gets confused about the state of the initialization and
the connection fails. In particular, the device thinks that it's already set up
and running while the host thinks the device still needs to be configured. To
work around this issue, power-cycle the hub's output to issue a sort of "reset"
to the device. This makes the device restart its state machine and then the
initialization succeeds.

This fixes problems where the kernel reports a list of errors like this:

usb 1-1.3: device not accepting address 19, error -71

The end result is a non-functioning device. After this patch, the sequence
becomes like this:

usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 18 using ci_hdrc
usb 1-1.3: device not accepting address 18, error -71
usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 19 using ci_hdrc
usb 1-1.3: device not accepting address 19, error -71
usb 1-1-port3: attempt power cycle
usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 21 using ci_hdrc
usb-storage 1-1.3:1.2: USB Mass Storage device detected

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
