v2 cover Re-introduce TX FIFO resize for larger EP bursting

Changes in V2:
- Modified TXFIFO resizing logic to ensure that each EP is reserved a FIFO.
- Removed dev_dbg() prints and fixed typos from patches
- Added some more description on the dt-bindings commit message

Currently, there is no functionality to allow for resizing the TXFIFOs, and relying on the HW default setting for the TXFIFO depth. In most cases, the HW default is probably sufficient, but for USB compositions that contain multiple functions that require EP bursting, the default settings might not be enough. Also to note, the current SW will assign an EP to a function driver w/o checking to see if the TXFIFO size for that particular EP is large enough. (this is a problem if there are multiple HW defined values for the TXFIFO size)

It is mentioned in the SNPS databook that a minimum of TX FIFO depth = 3 is required for an EP that supports bursting. Otherwise, there may be frequent occurences of bursts ending. For high bandwidth functions, such as data tethering (protocols that support data aggregation), mass storage, and media transfer protocol (over FFS), the bMaxBurst value can be large, and a bigger TXFIFO depth may prove to be beneficial in terms of USB throughput. (which can be associated to system access latency, etc...) It allows for a more consistent burst of traffic, w/o any interruptions, as data is readily available in the FIFO.

With testing done using the mass storage function driver, the results show that with a larger TXFIFO depth, the bandwidth increased significantly.

Test Parameters:
- Platform: Qualcomm SM8150
- bMaxBurst = 6
- USB req size = 256kB
- Num of USB reqs = 16
- USB Speed = Super-Speed
- Function Driver: Mass Storage (w/ ramdisk)
- Test Application: CrystalDiskMark

Results:

TXFIFO Depth = 3 max packets

PATCH v2 1/3 usb: dwc3: Resize TX FIFOs to meet EP bursting requirements

Some devices have USB compositions which may require multiple endpoints that support EP bursting. HW defined TX FIFO sizes may not always be sufficient for these compositions. By utilizing flexible TX FIFO allocation, this allows for endpoints to request the required FIFO depth to achieve higher bandwidth. With some higher bMaxBurst configurations, using a larger TX FIFO size results in better TX throughput.

Ensure that one TX FIFO is reserved for every IN endpoint. This allows for the FIFO logic to prevent running out of FIFO space.

PATCH v2 2/3 arm64: boot: dts: qcom: sm8150: Enable dynamic TX FIFO resize logic

In reply to Wesley Cheng

Enable the flexible TX FIFO resize logic on SM8150. Using a larger TX FIFO SZ can help account for situations when system latency is greater than the USB bus transmission latency.

PATCH v2 3/3 dt-bindings: usb: dwc3: Add entry for tx-fifo-resize

In reply to Wesley Cheng

Re-introduce the comment for the tx-fifo-resize setting for the DWC3 controller. This allows for vendors to control if they require the TX FIFO resizing logic on their HW, as the default FIFO size configurations may already be sufficient.
