As we discussed earlier, when uvc's complete function is called, if an -EXDEV
is returned in the request's status, the uvc driver will begin to cancel its
queue. With the current skip interrupt implementation in the uvc driver, if
this occurs while the uvc driver is pumping the current frame, then there is no
guarentee that the last request(s) will have had 'no_interrupt=0'. If the last
requests passed to dwc3 had 'no_interrupt=1', these requests would eventually
be placed at the end of the started_list. Since the IOC bit will not be set,
and if no missed isoc event occurs on these requests, then the dwc3 driver will
not be interrupted, leaving those remaining requests sitting in the
started_list, and dwc3 will not perform an 'End Transfer' as expected. Once the
uvc driver begins to pump the requests for the next frame, then it most likely
will result in additional missed isoc events, with the result being an extended
video freeze seen by the user.

I hope that other uvc driver maintainers can chime in here to help determine the
correct path forward. With the skip interrupt implementation, the uvc driver should
guarentee that the last request sent to dwc3 has 'no_interrupt=0', otherwise
if a missed isoc error occurs, it becomes very likely that the next immediate set of
frames could be dropped/cancelled because the dwc3 driver could not perform a timely
'End Transfer'.

For testing I implemented the following changes to see what I could do for this
issue. Note that I am on an older implementation and it's missing a lot of the
sg related implementation. The idea here is that if the queue is empty, and that
req_int_count is non-zero then the last request likely had 'no_interrupt=1' set.
And if this is the case then we will want to send some dummy request to dwc3 with
'no_interrupt=0' set to make sure that no requests get stuck in its started_list.

Alternatively we may just not want to cancel the queue upon receiving -EXDEV
and this could solve the problem too, but I don't think that it's such a great
idea, especially if things start falling behind.

I hope that someone more fluent in this area of code can take a crack at
improving/fixing this issue. 

The changes above do seem to help dwc3 timely end its transfers, but mainly for
cases where some requests are missed but the next immediate ones are not (i'm
talking within a couple of hundred microseconds). Most of the time if missed
isocs occurs for a frame that the remaining reqs in the started_list will
likely also error out and the list will be emptied and dwc3 will still timely
send 'End Transfer'. In reality this is to cover a corner case that can
adversely affect the quality of the video being watched. Just wanted to be
upfront with these details.

Thinh, any pointers on how we should proceed from here? It looks like your
changes are working well.

Thanks,
Jeff
