3e08b64f66 USB: early: Remove redundant license text
Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

c67678ec78 USB: early: Use new USB product ID and strings for DbC device
The DbC register set defines an interface for system software
to specify the vendor id and product id for the debug device.
These two values will be presented by the debug device in its
device descriptor idVendor and idProduct fields.

The current used product ID is a place holder. We now have a
valid one. The description strings are changed accordingly.

This patch should be back-ported to kernels as old as v4.12,
that contain the commit aeb9dd1de9 ("usb/early: Add driver
for xhci debug capability").

5fd54ace47 USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct
SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself.
The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
instead of the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

aeb9dd1de9 usb/early: Add driver for xhci debug capability
XHCI debug capability (DbC) is an optional but standalone
functionality provided by an xHCI host controller. Software
learns this capability by walking through the extended
capability list of the host. XHCI specification describes
DbC in section 7.6.

This patch introduces the code to probe and initialize the
debug capability hardware during early boot. With hardware
initialized, the debug target (system on which this code is
running) will present a debug device through the debug port
(normally the first USB3 port). The debug device is fully
compliant with the USB framework and provides the equivalent
of a very high performance (USB3) full-duplex serial link
between the debug host and target. The DbC functionality is
independent of the xHCI host. There isn't any precondition
from the xHCI host side for the DbC to work.

One use for this feature is kernel debugging, for example
when your machine crashes very early before the regular
console code is initialized. Other uses include simpler,
lockless logging instead of a full-blown printk console
driver and klogd.
