The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.
Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.
For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.
Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.
Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

Refactor how we interface with the root HUB. This is achieved by making a
direct call from usb2_do_request to the host controller for root hub requests,
this call will perform the controller specific register read/writes and return
the error code.
This cuts out a lot of code in the host controller files and saves one thread
per USB bus.

Refactor how we interface with the root HUB. This cuts around 1200 lines of
code totally and saves one thread per USB bus.

- make usb2_power_mask_t 16-bit
- remove "usb2_config_sub" structure from "usb2_config". To compensate for this
"usb2_config" has a new field called "usb_mode" which select for which mode
the current xfer entry is active. Options are: a) Device mode only b) Host
mode only (default-by-zero) c) Both modes. This change was scripted using
the following sed script: "s/\.mh\././g".
- the standard packet size table in "usb_transfer.c" is now a function, hence
the code for the function uses less memory than the table itself.

- memory usage reduction by only allocating the required USB pipes and USB
interfaces.
- cleanup some USB parsing functions to be more flexible.

- Move tunable defines into usb_core.h and dependancy towards usb_defs.h
- Leave hardcoded defines in "usb_defs.h".
- Allow overriding all tunable defines.
- Add more customisable typedefs.
- Correct maximum device number.
