[Connor] Xue is a cross-platform USB 3 debugger that drives the Debug Capability (DbC) of xHCI-compliant host controllers. This patch implements the operations needed for xue to initialize the host controller's DbC and communicate with it. It also implements a struct uart_driver that uses xue as a backend. Note that only target -> host communication is supported for now. To use Xue as a console, add 'console=dbgp dbgp=xhci' to the command line. [Marek] The Xue driver is taken from https://github.com/connojd/xue and heavily refactored to fit into Xen code base. Major changes include: - rename to xhci_dbc - drop support for non-Xen systems - drop xue_ops abstraction - use Xen's native helper functions for PCI access - move all the code to xue.c, drop "inline" - build for x86 only - annotate functions with cf_check - adjust for Xen's code style At this stage, only the first xHCI is considered, and only output is supported. Later patches add support for choosing specific device, and input handling. The driver is initiallized before memory allocator works, so all the transfer buffers (about 230KiB of them) are allocated statically and will use memory even if XUE console is not selected. The driver can be disabled build time to reclaim this memory. Most of this memory is shared with the controller via DMA. Later patch will adjust structures placement to avoid anything else to be placed on those DMA-reachable pages. This also means str_buf cannot use static initializer, without reserving (at least) a whole page page in .data (or more, when combined with other structures).
