This is integration of https://github.com/connojd/xue into mainline Xen.
This patch series includes several patches that I made in the process, some are
very loosely related.

The driver developed by Connor supports console via USB3 debug capability. The
capability is designed to operate mostly independently of normal XHCI driver,
so this patch series allows dom0 to drive standard USB3 controller part, while
Xen uses DbC for console output.

Changes since RFC:
 - move the driver to xue.c, remove non-Xen parts, remove now unneeded abstraction
 - adjust for Xen code style
 - build for x86 only
 - drop patch hidding the device from dom0
Changes since v1:
 - drop ehci patch - already applied
 - adjust for review comments from Jan (see changelogs in individual patches)
Changes since v2:
 - add runtime option to share (or not) the controller with dom0 or other domains
 - add RX support
 - several smaller changes according to review comments
Changes since v3:
 - put controller sharing behind experimental kconfig option
 - several other changes according to review comments
Changes since v4:
 - drop first 4 patches - already applied to staging
 - split dbgp=xhci into dbc=xhci
Changes since v5:
 - roll dbc=xhci back into dbgp=xhci, but make it work together with dbgp=ehci
Changes since v6:
 - reorder patches - put acked ones early (I've put acked IOMMU ones early too,
   even without VT-d, because they do make it work on AMD, and it's kind
   of required to get the console work with IOMMU enabled)
 - drop barriers patch (at least for now)
 - new patches for suspend support and console=ehci alias

Henry,

this series is kind of on the edge between a feature submission and
corrections to existing code, as the base patch introducing the new
driver was merged only recently, and at least some of the things here
aren't clearly "bug" fixes. Additionally it's on the side of larger
ones considering the point in time.

To summarize state: Patches 2-7 are ready to be committed, and Marek
tells me that they're independent of patch 1 (except for a context
conflict). Patch 11 probably also falls in this category. Patch 10,
otoh, is pretty likely to be viewed as a new feature, and hence
likely wants postponing. In any event - if I was to commit any of
these, this couldn't happen earlier than next Monday, as the laptop
I'm currently working with is not (yet) set up to do commits from.

Do you have any particular opinion on the disposition of this series?

Thanks, Jan

Thank you for the information and the detailed summary!

From the cover letter and the risk analysis from Marek, I am ok to
commit patch #2-#7 and patch#11, as long as they are independent
patches and will not break current driver. Thank you for taking care
of the committing :))

Since from the discussion earlier, the release-ack tag is a little bit too
early in this stage, it is up to you to add the release-ack tag when you
do the committing.

Kind regards,
Henry

I'd like to add for the risk analysis, that most of this code get
exercised only when explicit dbgp=xhci parameter is given (which is a
new feature introduced with a patch already committed for 4.17). Exception
to this are patches:
- patch 1 touches also dbgp=ehci case
- patches 2, 3, and 8 (the last one missing an ack) touch IOMMU code in
  general, but changes are rather not invasive
- patch 9 touches generic console code, but can be safely dropped (is
  completely independent from the others)
