This is true, if TRB pointer is 0 then there is no retry limit for soft retry.
We should add one and prevent a loop. after e few soft resets we can end with a
hard reset to clear the host side endpoint halt.

We don't know the URB that was being tansferred during the error, and can't 
give it back with a proper error code.
In that sense we still end up waiting for a timeout and someone to cancel
the urb.
