commit 4aac0db5a0ebc599d4ad9bf5ebab78afa1f33e10 upstream.
When usb_control_msg is used in the get_bMaxPacketSize0 function, the USB pipe does not include the endpoint device number. This can cause failures when a usb hub port is reinitialized after encountering a bad cable connection. As a result, the system logs the following error messages: usb usb2-port1: cannot reset (err = -32) usb usb2-port1: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad? usb usb2-port1: attempt power cycle usb 2-1: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ci_hdrc usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
The problem began after commit 85d07c556216 ("USB: core: Unite old scheme and new scheme descriptor reads"). There usb_get_device_descriptor was replaced with get_bMaxPacketSize0. Unlike usb_get_device_descriptor, the get_bMaxPacketSize0 function uses the macro usb_rcvaddr0pipe, which does not include the endpoint device number. usb_get_device_descriptor, on the other hand, used the macro usb_rcvctrlpipe, which includes the endpoint device number.
By modifying the get_bMaxPacketSize0 function to use usb_rcvctrlpipe instead of usb_rcvaddr0pipe, the issue can be resolved. This change will ensure that the endpoint device number is included in the USB pipe, preventing reinitialization failures. If the endpoint has not set the device number yet, it will still work because the device number is 0 in udev.
