create character devices. The deadlock can happen if an application is
issuing IOCTLs which require USB refcounting, at the same time the USB
device is detaching.
There is already a counter in place in the USB device structure to
detect this situation, but it was not always checked ahead of invoking
functions that might destroy character devices, like detach, set
configuration, set alternate interface or detach active kernel driver.

into the FreeBSD boot loader, typically for non-USB aware BIOSes, EFI systems
or embedded platforms. This is also useful for out of the system compilation
of the FreeBSD USB stack for various purposes. The USB kernel files can
now optionally include a global header file which should include all needed
definitions required to compile the FreeBSD USB stack. When the global USB
header file is included, no other USB header files will be included by
default.
Add new file containing the USB stack configuration for the
FreeBSD loader build.
Replace some __FBSDID()'s by /* $FreeBSD$ */ comments. Now all
USB files follow the same style.
Use cases:
- console in loader via USB
- loading kernel via USB

- Remove the need for Giant from the USB HUB driver.
- Leave device unconfigured instead of disabling the USB port
when Huawei Autoinstall disk detection triggers. This should
fix problems that the Huawei device is not detected after
Autoinstall eject is issued.

- Factor out the enumeration lock into three functions to make the
coming newbus lock conversion more easy.
- usbd_enum_lock
- usbd_enum_unlock
- usbd_enum_is_locked

cosmetic change to reduce cruft in the proc table.
Also change the idle wait message to `-` like how taskqueues are.
