ifdef in .c files are messy and hard to maintain.
Also, why is an xhci-specific option enabling/disabling core USB
functions like this? Shouldn't it be a generic USB config option name
instead?

Shouldn't we using the guard logic here instead? That would make all of
this look much simpler and easier to maintain over time.

Why the blank line?

I think you forgot to mark this function as requiring that the lock be
held, right? Just documenting it isn't going to be simple to notice or
maintain over time...
