From: Elric Fu <elricfu1@xxxxxxxxx> When the Seagate Goflex USB3.0 device is attached to VIA xHCI host, sometimes the device will downgrade mode to high speed. By the USB analyzer, I found the device finished the link training process and worked at superspeed mode. But the device descriptor got from the device shows the device works at 2.1. It is very strange and seems like the device controller of Seagate Goflex has a little confusion. The first 8 bytes of device descriptor should be: 12 01 00 03 00 00 00 09 But the first 8 bytes of wrong device descriptor are: 12 01 10 02 00 00 00 40 The wrong device descriptor caused the initialization of mass storage failed. After a while, the device would be recognized as a high speed device and works fine. This patch will warm reset the device to fix the issue after finding the bcdUSB field of device descriptor isn't 0x0300 but the speed mode of device is superspeed. This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, or ones that contain the commit 75d7cf72ab9fa01dc70877aa5c68e8ef477229dc "usbcore: refine warm reset logic".
