Thanks for the effort of working on this long standing issue, I know you
have spent alot of time on it, but what I am thinking is instead of
workaround the problem we need to understand the root cause - why
uvc-video takes longer to exec the urb callback, why only am335x
reported this issue. This is on my backlog, just seems never got time
for it...
Ideally MUSB driver should be just using HCD_BH flag and let the core to
handle the urb callback, regardless the usb transfer types.
The MUSB drivers are already messy and complicated enough for
maintenance, I'd like to understand the root cause of the delay first
before decide how to solve the issue.
Regards,
-Bin.
