ehci: Improve latency of interrupt delivery and async schedule scanning

ehci: Improve latency of interrupt delivery and async schedule scanning

While doing various performance tests of reading from USB mass storage devices
I noticed the following::
1) When an async handled packet completes, we don't immediately report an
   interrupt to the guest, instead we wait for the frame-timer to run and
   report it from there
2) If 1) has been fixed and an async handled packet takes a while to complete,
   then async_stepdown will become a high value, which means that there
   will be a large latency before any new packets queued by the guest in
   response to the interrupt get seen

1) was done deliberately as part of commit f0ad01f92:
http://www.kraxel.org/cgit/qemu/commit/?h=usb.57&id=f0ad01f92ca02eee7cadbfd225c5de753ebd5fce
Since setting the interrupt immediately on async packet completion was causing
issues with Linux guests, I believe this recently fixed Linux bug explains
why this is happening:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=361aabf395e4a23cf554cf4ec0c0c6963b8beb01

Note that we can *not* count on this fix being present in all Linux guests!

I was hoping that the recently added support for Interrupt Threshold Control
would fix the issues with Linux guests, but adding a simple ehci_commit_irq()
call to ehci_async_bh() still caused problems with Linux guests.

The problem is, that when doing ehci_commit_irq() from ehci_async_bh(),
the "old" frindex value is used to calculate usbsts_frindex, and when
the frame-timer then runs possibly very shortly after ehci_async_bh(),
it increases the frame-timer, and thus any interrupts raised from that
frame-timer run, will also get reported to the guest immediately, rather
then being delayed to the next frame-timer run.

Luckily the solution for this is simple, this means that we need to
increase frindex before calling ehci_commit_irq() from ehci_async_bh(),
which in the end boils down to simple calling ehci_frame_timer() instead
of ehci_async_bh() from the bh.

This may seem like it causes a lot of extra work to be done, but this
is not true. Any work done from the frame-timer processing the periodic
schedule is work which then does not need to be done the next time the
frame timer runs, also the frame-timer will re-arm itself at (possibly)
a later time then it was armed for saving a vmexit at that time.

As an additional advantage moving to simply calling the frame-timer also
fixes 2) as the packet completion will set async_stepdown to 0, and the
re-arming of the timer with an async_stepdown of 0 ensures that any
newly queued up packets get seen in a reasonable amount of time.

This improves the speed (MB/s) of a Linux guest reading from a USB mass
storage device by a factor of 1.5 - 1.7 with input pipelining disabled,
and by a factor of 1.8 with input pipelining enabled.
