USB: HCD: Fix URB giveback issue in tasklet function
[ Upstream commit 26c6c2f8a907c9e3a2f24990552a4d77235791e6 ]
Usb core introduce the mechanism of giveback of URB in tasklet context to
reduce hardware interrupt handling time. On some test situation(such as
FIO with 4KB block size), when tasklet callback function called to
giveback URB, interrupt handler add URB node to the bh->head list also.
If check bh->head list again after finish all URB giveback of local_list,
then it may introduce a "dynamic balance" between giveback URB and add URB
to bh->head list. This tasklet callback function may not exit for a long
time, which will cause other tasklet function calls to be delayed. Some
real-time applications(such as KB and Mouse) will see noticeable lag.
In order to prevent the tasklet function from occupying the cpu for a long
time at a time, new URBS will not be added to the local_list even though
the bh->head list is not empty. But also need to ensure the left URB
giveback to be processed in time, so add a member high_prio for structure
giveback_urb_bh to prioritize tasklet and schelule this tasklet again if
bh->head list is not empty.
At the same time, we are able to prioritize tasklet through structure
member high_prio. So, replace the local high_prio_bh variable with this
structure member in usb_hcd_giveback_urb.
