0011 - Convert interrupt handler to per-ep-thread-irq
0012 
0013   As it turns out some DWC3-commands ~1ms to complete. Currently we spin
0014   until the command completes which is bad.
0015 
0016   Implementation idea:
0017 
0018   - dwc core implements a demultiplexing irq chip for interrupts per
0019     endpoint. The interrupt numbers are allocated during probe and belong
0020     to the device. If MSI provides per-endpoint interrupt this dummy
0021     interrupt chip can be replaced with "real" interrupts.
0022   - interrupts are requested / allocated on usb_ep_enable() and removed on
0023     usb_ep_disable(). Worst case are 32 interrupts, the lower limit is two
0024     for ep0/1.
0025   - dwc3_send_gadget_ep_cmd() will sleep in wait_for_completion_timeout()
0026     until the command completes.
0027   - the interrupt handler is split into the following pieces:
0028 
0029     - primary handler of the device
0030       goes through every event and calls generic_handle_irq() for event
0031       it. On return from generic_handle_irq() in acknowledges the event
0032       counter so interrupt goes away (eventually).
0033 
0034     - threaded handler of the device
0035       none
0036 
0037     - primary handler of the EP-interrupt
0038       reads the event and tries to process it. Everything that requires
0039       sleeping is handed over to the Thread. The event is saved in an
0040       per-endpoint data-structure.
0041       We probably have to pay attention not to process events once we
0042       handed something to thread so we don't process event X prio Y
0043       where X > Y.
0044 
0045     - threaded handler of the EP-interrupt
0046       handles the remaining EP work which might sleep such as waiting
0047       for command completion.
0048 
0049   Latency:
0050 
0051    There should be no increase in latency since the interrupt-thread has a
0052    high priority and will be run before an average task in user land
0053    (except the user changed priorities).
