This is still incomplete.  _Why_ do you want to increase the threshold?  
Does it fix a problem?  Does it improve performance?

Also, the lines are too long.  They should be wrapped before 80 
columns.

The "usb_" prefix in the name isn't needed, because this is a static 
routine.

This looks a little peculiar, because someone reading the code would
expect you to use the maximal threshold.

Also the formatting isn't quite right.  There should be a space before 
the closing */ of a comment, and there should be spaces around the << 
operator.

This is much more complicted that it needs to be.  When this routine 
runs, the controller has already been memory-mapped.  All you need to 
do is:

	ehci_writel(ehci, EHCI_INSNREG01_THRESH,
			ehci->regs->insnreg01_thresh);

Since it's only one statement, you don't even need to put this in a
separate function.  It can go directly into ehci_pci_reinit().

Also, in include/linux/usb/ehci_defs.h, you'll have to add:

#define insnreg01_thresh	hostpc[0]

with an explanatory comment, near the definition of the HOSTPC 
register.
