This should apply to -next.  Use "git am -c", but I have attached it for
convenience as well.  Boots for me, but more importantly does it boot
for you :-).

Subject: usb: fix ->update_hub_device() vs hdev->maxchild

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

Commit d8521afe3586 "usb: assign default peer ports for root hubs"
delayed marking a hub valid (set hdev->maxchild) until it had been fully
configured and to enable the publishing of valid hubs to be serialized
by usb_port_peer_mutex.

However, xhci_update_hub_device() in some cases depends on
hdev->maxchild already being set.  Do the minimal fix and move it after
the setting of hdev->maxchild.
