Why does it come into a vicious circle? If the interrupt endpoint is
HALTed, the clear halt event is scheduled to call usb_clear_halt(int pipe),
and if it returns successfully, the pipe shouldn't be halted any more,
so the later usb_submit_urb() should be OK on the interrupt endpoint.

The similar handling policy is taken for RX/TX endpoints in case they
are halted.

Looks it is not needed, at least clearing HALT on Rx/Tx endpoints
works well without the limit.
