Subject: [PATCH] xhci: Keep interrupt disabled in initialization until host is
running.

irq is disabled in xhci_quiesce(called by xhci_halt, with bit:2 cleared in USBCMD register), but xhci_run(called by usb_add_hcd) re-enable it. It's possible that you will receive thousands of interrupt requests after initialization for 2.0 roothub. And you will get a lot of warning like, "xHCI dying, ignoring interrupt. Shouldn't IRQs be disabled?". This amount of interrupt requests will cause the entire system to freeze.
This problem was first found on a device with ASM2142 host controller on it.
