USB: EHCI: use hrtimer for the I/O watchdog This patch (as1586) replaces the kernel timer used by ehci-hcd as an I/O watchdog with an hrtimer event. Unlike in the current code, the watchdog event is now always enabled whenever any isochronous URBs are active. This will prevent bugs caused by the periodic schedule wrapping around with no completion interrupts; the watchdog handler is guaranteed to scan the isochronous transfers at least once during each iteration of the schedule. The extra overhead will be negligible: one timer interrupt every 100 ms. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
