I agree about it. However, on other hand, I thought about the
possibility/effort to decreasing use-cases of xhci_handshake()
busyloop. (there are several places to use more than e.g. 500ms
timeout.)  Because long busyloop (especially with interrupt-off) has
really bad effect to whole system of non-usb.

I worried about in the case of real internal confusing, and consider
about chip that doesn't have no stop/abort event.

To handle both case, timeout choice would not be straight-forward.

Right. The main point of patchset is 1/3 and 2/3.

True. But actual effort for it was very small.

@@ -65,16 +65,18 @@ int xhci_handshake(void __iomem *ptr, u3

Thanks.
