Subject: [PATCH v4] docs: usbip: Fix major fields and descriptions in protocol
The old document for usbip protocol is misleading and hard to read:
* Some fields in header are incorrect
* Explanation of some fields are unclear or even wrong
* Padding of header (namely all headers have the same length) is
not explicitly pointed out, which is crucial for stream protocol
like TCP
Major changes:
* Document the correct field as described in the codebase.
* Document the padding in usbip headers. This is crucial for TCP
stream hence these padding should be explicitly point out.
In code these padding are implemented by a union of all headers.
* Fix two FIXME related to usbip unlink and Document the behavior
of unlink in different situation.
* Clarify some field with more accurate explanation, like those
fields associated with URB. Some constraints are extracted from
code.
* Delete specific transfer_flag doc in usbip as it should be
documented by the URB part.
* Add data captured from wire as example

PATCH v2:
Some changes suggested by a previous patch in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb
/20180128071514.9107-1-alexandre.f.demers@...il.com/
is adopted in this patch.
* Fix Typo: duplicated 'the' in 'the following 4 field'
* Fix incorrect field: in OP_REQ_DEVLIST, the second dev starts with
field 'path', not 'busid'
PATCH v3:
Suggested by
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/YE8Oan2BmSuKR4%2Fp@kroah.com/
* Remove date and changelog in doc as these are tracked in git history
* Remove 'mistake alert' as all data fields are documented properly
now. However, docs on possible values for some field shall be added
in the future
PATCH v4:
Suggested by https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc
/40351ed6-2907-3966-e69a-a564173b3682@...radead.org/
* Add punctuations for readability
* Move patch changelog after the marker line
* Remove nickname in signed-off-by line
