Subject: [PATCH 3.16 046/254] xhci: Don't show incorrect WARN message
 about events for empty rings

3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit e4ec40ec4b260efcca15089de4285a0a3411259b upstream.

xHC can generate two events for a short transfer if the short TRB and
last TRB in the TD are not the same TRB.

The driver will handle the TD after the first short event, and remove
it from its internal list. Driver then incorrectly prints a warning
for the second event:

"WARN Event TRB for slot x ep y with no TDs queued"

Fix this by not printing a warning if we get a event on a empty list
if the previous event was a short event.
