Thanks for the series. Big picture looks good.

Some minor concerns, for example how the generic xhci code now assumes
we can start the controller (run) after adding the primary hcd if only
one roothub has ports, and assumes the secondary hcd won't be added.

After this series this is true for controllers using xhci-plat.c,
but not for mediatek, tegra and all PCI xhci controllers.
I'll comment that patch with more info.

I'll see if I can try to fake a pci xhci controller to try this series out.

Thanks
