In general, xHCI didn't do anything for port initialization. However,
there are some requirement or limitation on various platforms, so
vendors need to do some error handlings if the device connected to a
broken USB accessory.

This patch also add the hook to xhci_driver_overrides so that vendors
can add their specific protection easily if needed.

For obvious technical and legal reasons, we are not allowed to add
"hooks" to the kernel where there are no in-kernel users.  Nor would you
want us to do so.

So I really do not understand this patch series at all.

What driver wants to do odd things here?  What needs to happen that the
in-tree drivers are not doing properly?  Why not get the needed fixes in
the in-kernel drivers instead of trying to add random hooks that some
out-of-tree code would use instead.

confused,

Agree on this. I am trying another way to achieve the same goal.

I will prepare a new commit to do it.
