[xhci] Support USB1 devices attached via transaction translators
xHCI provides a somewhat convoluted mechanism for specifying details
of a transaction translator. Hubs must be marked as such in the
device slot context. The only opportunity to do so is as part of a
Configure Endpoint command, which can be executed only when opening
the hub's interrupt endpoint.
We add a mechanism for host controllers to intercept the opening of
hub devices, providing xHCI with an opportunity to update the internal
device slot structure for the corresponding USB device to indicate
that the device is a hub. We then include the hub-specific details in
the input context whenever any Configure Endpoint command is issued.
When a device is opened, we record the device slot and port for its
transaction translator (if any), and supply these as part of the
Address Device command.

[usb] Reset endpoints without waiting for a new transfer to be enqueued
The current endpoint reset logic defers the reset until the caller
attempts to enqueue a new transfer to that endpoint. This is
insufficient when dealing with endpoints behind a transaction
translator, since the transaction translator is a resource shared
between multiple endpoints.
We cannot reset the endpoint as part of the completion handling, since
that would introduce recursive calls to usb_poll(). Instead, we
add the endpoint to a list of halted endpoints, and perform the reset
on the next call to usb_step().

Several of the USB timeouts were chosen on the principle of "pick an
arbitrary but ridiculously large value, just to be safe". It turns
out that some of the timeouts permitted by the USB specification are
even larger: for example, control transactions are allowed to take up
to five seconds to complete.
Fix up these USB timeout values to match those found in the USB2
specification.

[tcp] Implement support for TCP Selective Acknowledgements (SACK)
The TCP Selective Acknowledgement option (specified in RFC2018)
provides a mechanism for the receiver to indicate packets that have
been received out of order (e.g. due to earlier dropped packets).
iPXE often operates in environments in which there is a high
probability of packet loss. For example, the legacy USB keyboard
emulation in some BIOSes involves polling the USB bus from within a
system management interrupt: this introduces an invisible delay of
around 500us which is long enough for around 40 full-length packets to
be dropped. Similarly, almost all 1Gbps USB2 devices will eventually
end up dropping packets because the USB2 bus does not provide enough
bandwidth to sustain a 1Gbps stream, and most devices will not provide
enough internal buffering to hold a full TCP window's worth of
received packets.
Add support for sending TCP Selective Acknowledgements. This provides
the sender with more detailed information about which packets have
been lost, and so allows for a more efficient retransmission strategy.
We include a SACK-permitted option in our SYN packet, since
experimentation shows that at least Linux peers will not include a
SACK-permitted option in the SYN-ACK packet if one was not present in
the initial SYN. (RFC2018 does not seem to mandate this behaviour,
but it is consistent with the approach taken in RFC1323.) We ignore
any received SACK options; this is safe to do since SACK is only ever
advisory and we never have to send non-trivial amounts of data.
Since our TCP receive queue is a candidate for cache discarding under
low memory conditions, we may end up discarding data that has been
reported as received via a SACK option. This is permitted by RFC2018.
We follow the stricture that SACK blocks must not report data which is
no longer held by the receiver: previously-reported blocks are
validated against the current receive queue before being included
within the current SACK block list.
Experiments in a qemu VM using forced packet drops (by setting
NETDEV_DISCARD_RATE to 32) show that implementing SACK improves
throughput by around 400%.
Experiments with a USB2 NIC (an SMSC7500) show that implementing SACK
improves throughput by around 700%, increasing the download rate from
35Mbps up to 250Mbps (which is approximately the usable bandwidth
limit for USB2).

[smsc75xx] Add driver for SMSC/Microchip LAN75xx USB Ethernet NICs
This driver is functional but any downloads via a TCP-based protocol
tend to perform poorly. The 1Gbps Ethernet line rate is substantially
higher than the 480Mbps (in practice around 280Mbps) provided by USB2,
and the device has only 32kB of internal buffer memory. Our 256kB TCP
receive window therefore rapidly overflows the RX FIFO, leading to
multiple dropped packets (usually within the same TCP window) and
hence a low overall throughput.
Reducing the TCP window size so that the RX FIFO does not overflow
greatly increases throughput, but is not a general-purpose solution.
Further investigation is required to determine how other OSes
(e.g. Linux) cope with this scenario. It is possible that
implementing TCP SACK would provide some benefit.

Most devices expose at least the link up/down status via a bit in a
MAC register, since the MAC generally already needs to know whether or
not the link is up. Some devices (e.g. the SMSC75xx USB NIC) expose
this information to software only via the MII registers.
Provide a generic mii_check_link() implementation to check the BMSR
and report the link status via netdev_link_{up,down}().

At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).
Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.
If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.

[usb] Handle port status changes received after failing to find a driver
Commit a60f2dd ("[usb] Try multiple USB device configurations")
changed the behaviour of register_usb() such that if no drivers are
found then the device will be closed and the memory used will be
freed.
If a port status change subsequently occurs while the device is still
physically attached, then usb_hotplug() will see this as a new device
having been attached, since there is no device recorded as being
currently attached to the port. This can lead to spurious hotplug
events (or even endless loops of hotplug events, if the process of
opening and closing the device happens to generate a port status
change).
Fix by using a separate flag to indicate that a device is physically
attached (even if we have no corresponding struct usb_device).
