Adding a writable sysfs attribute for the "NDP to end" quirk flag. This makes it easier for end users to test new devices for this firmware bug. We've been lucky so far, but we should not depend on reporters capable of rebuilding the driver.

Description:
|
||
The driver will pad NCM Transfer Blocks (NTBs) longer
|
||
than this to tx_max, allowing the device to receive
|
||
tx_max sized frames with no terminating short
|
||
packet. NTBs shorter than this limit are transmitted
|
||
as-is, without any padding, and are terminated with a
|
||
short USB packet.
|
||
|
||
Padding to tx_max allows the driver to transmit NTBs
|
||
back-to-back without any interleaving short USB
|
||
packets. This reduces the number of short packet
|
||
interrupts in the device, and represents a tradeoff
|
||
between USB bus bandwidth and device DMA optimization.
|
||
|
||
Set to 0 to pad all frames. Set greater than tx_max to
|
||
disable all padding.

Description:
|
||
Boolean attribute showing the status of the "NDP to
|
||
end" quirk. Defaults to 'N', except for devices
|
||
already known to need it enabled.
|
||
|
||
The "NDP to end" quirk makes the driver place the NDP
|
||
(the packet index table) after the payload. The NCM
|
||
specification does not mandate this, but some devices
|
||
are known to be more restrictive. Write 'Y' to this
|
||
attribute for temporary testing of a suspect device
|
||
failing to work with the default driver settings.
|
||
|
||
A device entry should be added to the driver if this
|
||
quirk is found to be required.

|

|

Note: Some devices will silently ignore changes to
|

this value, resulting in oversized NTBs and

corresponding framing errors.
