drivers: usb: core: Don't disable irqs in usb_sg_wait() during URB submit.
usb_submit_urb() may take quite long to execute. For example, a single sg list may have 30 or more entries, possibly leading to that many calls to DMA-map pages. This can cause interrupt latency of several hundred micro-seconds. Avoid the problem by releasing the io->lock spinlock and re-enabling interrupts before calling usb_submit_urb(). This opens races with usb_sg_cancel() and sg_complete(). Handle those races by using usb_block_urb() to stop URBs from being submitted after usb_sg_cancel() or sg_complete() with error. Note that usb_unlink_urb() is guaranteed to return -ENODEV if !io->urbs[i]->dev and since the -ENODEV case is already handled, we don't have to check for !io->urbs[i]->dev explicitly. Before this change, reading 512MB from an ext3 filesystem on a USB memory stick showed a throughput of 12 MB/s with about 500 missed deadlines. With this change, reading the same file gave the same throughput but only one or two missed deadlines.
