This series is a set of patches that are required to make USB sticks behave
robust while using U-Boot on a OHCI host.
Several users complain about ERROR: CTL:TIMEOUT errors while using USB sticks,
and while testing many different USB sticks it showed that some were working
and many don't. It even showed a compiler dependency while debugging this, where
GCC 3.x compilers seemed to work (but not always) and GCC 4.x compilers usually
don't. While debugging this (with a USB analyser of course) it turned out that
U-boot also made several protocol violations that needed to be solved, these
resulted in hanging USB devices and so on.
In a mail thread with Stelian Pop on 28 July it was reported of a known error
on Atmel cores that it did not work.
I tested these series on Atmel AT91SAM9261 Core, with the common OHCI driver,
GCC 4.2.3 (Code Sourcery G++ Lite 2008q1-126)
REMEMBER: U-boot still supports 1 single USB stick at a time...
