gone rule. Optimise use of channels so that when a channel
is not ready another channel is used. Instead of using the SOF interrupt
use the system timer to drive the host statemachine. This might
give lower throughput and higher latency, but reduces the CPU usage
significantly. The DWC OTG host mode support should not be considered
for serious USB host controller applications. Some problems are still
seen with LOW speed USB devices.
of the DWC OTG is very simple in PIO mode, and we need to re-transmit
data when NAK is received among other things. We probably will need
to implement some kind of rate limitation on the NAK-ing.
The DWC OTG host mode support should still be considered
experimental. Isochronous support for DWC OTG is not
fully implemented. Some code added derives from
Aleksandr Rybalko's dotg.c driver.
"device_free_softc()" and "device_claim_softc()",
to allow USB serial drivers refcounting the softc.
These functions are used to grab the softc from
auto-free and to free the softc back to the correct
malloc type, respectivly.

make maintaining this driver from the documentation easier in the future.
This is a mostly mechanical change.
In uslcom_param(), move the zeroing of the final two fields of the
flowctrl structure outside of the "if CRTSCTS" section - not only were
they being zeroed in both the clauses, but these two fields have nothing
to do with hardware flow control anyway.
in SUPER-speed mode, USB 3.0.
This feature has not been tested yet, due to lack of hardware.
This feature is useful when implementing protocols like UASP,
USB attached SCSI which promises higher USB mass storage throughput.
This patch also implements support for hardware processing of endpoints
for increased performance. The switching to hardware processing
of an endpoint is done via a callback to the USB controller driver. The
stream feature is implemented like a variant of a hardware USB protocol.
USB controller drivers implementing device mode needs to be updated to
implement the new "xfer_stall" USB controller method and remove the
"xfer" argument from the "set_stall" method.
The API's toward existing USB drivers are preserved. To setup a USB transfer
in stream mode, set the "stream_id" field of the USB config structure to
the desired value.
The maximum number of BULK streams is currently hardcoded and limited to 8
via a define in usb_freebsd.h.
All USB drivers should be re-compiled after this change.
LibUSB will be updated next week to support streams mode. A new IOCTL to
setup BULK streams as already been implemented. The ugen device nodes
currently only supports stream ID zero.
The FreeBSD version has been bumped.

the device_detach() function doesn't block on UCOM device
drivers until the TTY handle is closed by the userspace
application. This is implemented by a postpone of the
softc free where the UCOM structures reside until the
TTY references are gone.

Extend the callback table of UCOM to include a
"ucom_free" function pointer which is called when
all refs on a UCOM super structure is gone.
Implement various helper functions to handle
refcounting and draining on the UCOM super
structure.
Implement macro which can be used in device
drivers to avoid module unload before all
pending TTY references are gone.
The UCOM API is backwards compatible after this
change and device drivers require no changes
to function with this change. Only a recompilation
of UCOM device drivers is required. The FreeBSD
version has been bumped in that regard.

that the wrong UART reference clock will be used for a few of the IDs.
It is currently not possible to figure that out because the Linux FTDI
driver detects this run-time and not compile time based on the bcdDevice
field of the USB device descriptor. Some of the ID's in usbdevs are not
sorted according to the product ID value. Please feel free to fix this.
I'm out of my xemacs magic today.
This syncronises us with the linux kernel at kernel.org (HEAD).

Use the interface number from the USB interface descriptor
like in the other USB serial drivers. These numbers are not
supposed to be different, though in theory they can. Make sure
that the driver then uses the interface number given by the USB
descriptor, and not the logical index of the USB stack.
For the future:
Whenever the term "index" is used in the USB code, it refers to
a number computed by the USB stack.
Whenever the term "number" is used in the USB code, it refers to
a number in a USB descriptor.

support for only the first port, but the CP2105 can have multiple ports.
Although this allowed the first port to mostly work on multi port devices,
there could be issues with this arrangement.
Update the man page to reflect support for both ports and the CP2105.
Many thanks to Silicon Labs (www.silabs.com) for providing a CP2105-EK
dev board for testing.
