Subject: [PATCH 03/47] Bluetooth: Improve USB driver throughput by increasing the frame size

From: Vikram Kandukuri <vkandukuri@...eros.com>

This patch increases the receive buffer size to HCI_MAX_FRAME_SIZE
which improves the RX throughput considerably.

Tested against BRM/Atheros/CSR USB Dongles with PAN profile using
iperf and chariot. This gave significant (around 40%) increase
in performance (increased from 0.8 to 1.5 Mb/s in Sheld room)
