<content type='text'>
The VHCI platform driver aims to forbid entering system suspend when at
least one of the virtual USB ports are bound to an active USB/IP
connection.

However, in some cases, the detection logic doesn't work reliably, i.e.
when all devices attached to the virtual root hub have been already
suspended, leading to a broken suspend state, with unrecoverable resume.

Ensure the virtually attached devices do not enter suspend by setting
the syscore PM flag.  Note this is currently limited to the client side
only, since the server side doesn't implement system suspend prevention.

Fixes: 04679b3489e0 ("Staging: USB/IP: add client driver")

The seqnum field in USBIP protocol is an unsigned value.
So we fix the format specifier from %d to %u to correctly
display the value.

The atomic_inc_return function returns an int, while priv-&gt;seqnum is an
unsigned long. So we must cast the result to u32 to prevent potential
sign extension and size mismatch issues.

<title>USB: Use str_enable_disable-like helpers</title>

Replace ternary (condition ? "enable" : "disable") syntax with helpers
from string_choices.h because:
1. Simple function call with one argument is easier to read.  Ternary
   operator has three arguments and with wrapping might lead to quite
   long code.
2. Is slightly shorter thus also easier to read.
3. It brings uniformity in the text - same string.
4. Allows deduping by the linker, which results in a smaller binary
   file.

<title>usbip: Accept arbitrarily long scatter-gather list</title>

Fixes issue where memory will fail to be allocated for larger bulk
transfers, ~1 MB or more. This occurs because userland libraries, such
as libusb, send the entire USB data buffer when SG support is detected.
The assumption is that the driver knows how to properly split the data
up before sending it out.

By hardcoding a limit, bigger transfers that exceed the SG tablesize
limit of 32 will be unable to use SG. This results in an attempt to
allocate contiguous pages which, unsurprisingly, will fail too and
returns an ENOMEM. It looks like other drivers that support SG allow for
any length of SG lists. Accepting any SG size allows the driver to
properly handle large bulk transfer situations.

Tested bulk read and write operations using the following devices:

 - Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 - USB 2.0
 - SanDisk Ultra - USB 3.0
 - Logitech M500s Mouse

After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove()
return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for
platform drivers.

Convert all platform drivers below drivers/usb to use .remove(), with
the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As
.remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done
by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.
