usb: ehci: make HC see up-to-date qh/qtd descriptor ASAP
This patch introduces the helper of ehci_sync_mem to flush
qtd/qh into memory immediately on some ARM, so that HC can
see the up-to-date qtd/qh descriptor asap.
This patch fixs one performance bug on ARM Cortex A9 dual core
platform, which has been reported on quite a few ARM machines
(OMAP4, Tegra 2, snowball...), see details from link of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/709245.
The patch has been tested ok on OMAP4 panda A1 board, and the
performance of 'dd' over usb mass storage can be increased from
4~5MB/sec to 14~16MB/sec after applying this patch.
