usb: xhci: bail out of setup if the controller is inaccessible
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: xhci: bail out of setup if the controller is inaccessible xhci_gen_setup() locates the operational registers using the capability length read from the very first register: xhci->op_regs = hcd->regs + HC_LENGTH(readl(&xhci->cap_regs->hc_capbase)); If the controller is dead or has dropped off the bus, that read returns ~0, HC_LENGTH() truncates it to 0xff, and op_regs ends up 0xff bytes past the page-aligned MMIO base, i.e. unaligned. The first access through it, xhci_halt() -> xhci_handshake() reading op_regs->status, is then an unaligned readl() on device memory.
