Subject: [PATCH 4.9 25/29] xhci: Prevent futile URB re-submissions due to incorrect return value.

From: Hongyu Xie <xiehongyu1@...inos.cn>

commit 243a1dd7ba48c120986dd9e66fee74bcb7751034 upstream.

The -ENODEV return value from xhci_check_args() is incorrectly changed
to -EINVAL in a couple places before propagated further.

xhci_check_args() returns 4 types of value, -ENODEV, -EINVAL, 1 and 0.
xhci_urb_enqueue and xhci_check_streams_endpoint return -EINVAL if
the return value of xhci_check_args <= 0.
This causes problems for example r8152_submit_rx, calling usb_submit_urb
in drivers/net/usb/r8152.c.
r8152_submit_rx will never get -ENODEV after submiting an urb when xHC
is halted because xhci_urb_enqueue returns -EINVAL in the very beginning.

[commit message and header edit -Mathias]
