Subject: [PATCH v4] usb: gadget: storage_common: make FSG_NUM_BUFFERS variable size
From: Per Forlin <per.forlin@...aro.org>
FSG_NUM_BUFFERS is set to 2 as default.
Usually 2 buffers are enough to establish a good buffering pipeline.
The number may be increased in order to compensate a for bursty VFS
behaviour.
Here follows a description of system that may require more than
2 buffers.
* CPU ondemand governor active
* latency cost for wake up and/or frequency change
* DMA for IO
Use case description.
* Data transfer from MMC via VFS to USB.
* DMA shuffles data from MMC and to USB.
* The CPU wakes up every now and then to pass data in and out from VFS,
which cause the bursty VFS behaviour.
Test set up
* Running dd on the host reading from the mass storage device
* cmdline: dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=4k count=$((256*100))
* Caches are dropped on the host and on the device before each run
Measurements on a Snowball board with ondemand_govenor active.

There may not be one optimal number for all boards. This is why
the number is added to Kconfig. If selecting USB_DEBUG this value may be
set by a module parameter as well.

Change log.
v2: Update after proofreading comments from Michal Nazarewicz
v3: Clarify the description of this patch based on input from Alan Stern
v4: - Introduce a module_param to set number of pipeline buffers
if USB_DEBUG is set. In order to add this support fsg_common is
allocated at runtime. The fsg_buffhd list size is appended to fsg_dev
and fsg_common at runtime allocation.
- The previous acks from Michal and Alan on v3 are not applicable
for this version since it's a new implementation.

+ Usually 2 buffers are enough to establish a good buffering
+ pipeline. The number may be increased in order to compensate
+ for a bursty VFS behaviour. For instance there may be cpu wake up
+ latencies that makes the VFS to appear bursty in a system with
+ an cpu on-demand governor. Especially if DMA is doing IO to
+ offload the CPU. In this case the CPU will go into power
+ save often and spin up occasionally to move data within VFS.
+ If selecting USB_DEBUG this value may be set by a module
+ parameter as well.
+ If unsure, say 2.
