The Event Handler Busy bit shall be cleared by software when the Event
Ring is empty. The xHC is thereby informed that it may raise another
interrupt once it has enqueued new events (sec 4.17.2).
However since commit dc0ffbea5729 ("usb: host: xhci: update event ring
dequeue pointer on purpose"), the EHB bit is already cleared after half
a segment has been processed.
As a result, spurious interrupts may occur:
- xhci_irq() processes half a segment, clears EHB, continues processing
remaining events.
- xHC enqueues new events. Because EHB has been cleared, xHC sets
Interrupt Pending bit. Interrupt moderation countdown begins.
- Meanwhile xhci_irq() continues processing events. Interrupt
moderation countdown reaches zero, so an MSI interrupt is signaled.
- xhci_irq() empties the Event Ring, clears EHB again and is done.
- Because an MSI interrupt has been signaled, xhci_irq() is run again.
It discovers there's nothing to do and returns IRQ_NONE.
Avoid by clearing the EHB bit only at the end of xhci_irq().
Thanks,
Nice catch, we shouldn't clear EHB if we are in the middle of handling several
events.

This might still write the ERST_EHB bit even if clear_ehb is false.
Earlier in xhci_update_erst_dequeue() we do:
temp_64 = xhci_read_64(xhci, &ir->ir_set->erst_dequeue)
...
temp_64 &= ERST_PTR_MASK;
temp_64 |= ((u64) deq & (u64) ~ERST_PTR_MASK);
ERST_PTR_MASK covers the ERST_EHB bit, so if it's set it will also be written back,
which clears it (RW1C)
#define ERST_EHB (1 << 3)
#define ERST_PTR_MASK (0xf)
The ERST_PTR_MASK name is really confusing as it masks everything else than the dequeue pointer.
Should probably be changed
