[U-Boot] [PATCH] ehci-hcd: Allow cleanups to happen on an EHCI timeout.

With this, the EHCI seems to "recover" from a timeout. This is particularly observable if you were to ping the wrong IP Address and then ping the correct one or if there was a temporary failure during tftp sessions.
All it takes is one timeout to disable it. If you have a noisy network (lot of traffic), even if the traffic is not for the board, the timeouts don't occur.

The tftp session retrieves the uImage with your patch and a timeout of 5000:

Koen grabbed some patches I added that seemed to "fix" the tftpboot and ping problem for me:
https://github.com/koenkooi/u-boot or my fork @ https://github.com/kylemanna/u-boot
I'd be interested to hear if adding the delay at the end of the smsc95xx init helped your problem at all.

Yes this is better (ASIX can recover from a timeout), but I am concerned that it carries on without reporting an error. Is that right?
Should we disable async schedule and then return an error?
With respect to using a bulk USB stick (some of which take 3s or more to respond to a submit) this doesn't make any difference for me. It seems to take a long time to respond the first time, so the 5s timeout seems prudent.
Since this sorts out the network side we can probably skip that patch.
