To let the xhci driver support USB offload, add hooks for vendor to have
customized behavior for the initialization, memory allocation, irq work, and
device context synchronization. Detail is in each patch commit message.
Is this related to the usb audio sideband capability that was added to the xHCI specification?
If yes, then we should probably implement the generic parts first, and then add
the vendor specific hooks.

This is for offloading, no matter what type of offloading.
I made the hooks generically and can be used for usb audio on the xhci
which is not including the usb audio sideband capability.
Ok, before adding hooks like this I think we need to see how they are used.
Do you have the rest of the patches that go on top of this series?

Maybe it could make sense to use overrides for the functions in struct hc_driver
instead in some cases? There is support for that already.

Thanks
