transfer, which lead to panics or page faults. For example if a
transfer timed out, another thread could come along and attempt to
abort the same transfer while the timeout task was sleeping in
the *_abort_xfer() function.
Add an "aborting" flag to the private transfer state in each host
controller driver and use this to ensure that the abort is only
executed once. Also prioritise normal abort requests over timeouts
so that the callback is always given a status of USB_CANCELLED even
if the timeout-initiated abort began first.
The crashes caused by this bug were mainly reported in connection
with lpd printing to a USB printer.

to remove a transaction from the async schedule. The previous method didn't
work well and led to the hardware writing to free'd buffers etc, as
it didn't always know that the transaction had been aborted.

EHCI driver.
As part of this give the sqh structure a "previous" pointer.

are supposed to disable the emulation when this procedure is performed.
to be particularly correct or optimal, but it seems to be enough
to allow the attachment of USB2 hubs and USB2 devices connected via
USB2 hubs. None of the split transaction support is implemented in
our USB stack, so USB1 peripherals will definitely not work when
connected via USB2 hubs.
