Hi,

Some comments from the side-line:

I've observed some XHCI controllers sending special case events, like IO-errors for ISOCHRONOUS endpoints, out of order. In not sure if the XHCI specification is clear about this, or not, that when you have bunch of TD's on an endpoint, you should not receive the completion event for the next timeslot / TD, before receiving the IO-error for the previous failed TRB/TD. I'm not sure what tests HW guys are doing these days regarding XHCI. This has been observed during driver development of FreeBSD's XHCI driver a long time ago, and I though I'd mention it for you guys.
