Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 037/104] xhci: give command abortion one more chance before killing xhci

3.16.7-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@...ux.intel.com>

commit a6809ffd1687b3a8c192960e69add559b9d32649 upstream.

We want to give the command abortion an additional try to stop
the command ring before we completely hose xhci.

  - xhci_handshake() has an extra 'xhci' parameter in 3.16 ]
