[PATCH v4] usb/hcd: Send a uevent signaling that the host controller had died

[Raul E Rangel]

This change will send an OFFLINE event to udev with the ERROR=DEAD
environment variable set when the HC dies.

By notifying user space the appropriate policies can be applied.
i.e.,
 * Collect error logs.
 * Notify the user that USB is no longer functional.
 * Perform a graceful reboot.

I wasn't able to find any good examples of other drivers sending a dead
notification.

Use an EVENT= format

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/interrupt.c#L497

Uses SDEV_MEDIA_CHANGE=
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c#L2318

Uses ERROR=1.
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/7f6d8aec5803aac44192f03dce5637b66cda7abf/drivers/input/touchscreen/atmel_mxt_ts.c#1581
I'm not a fan because it doesn't signal what the error was.


Changes in v4:
- Move hcd_died_work out of CONFIG_PM ifdef
- Make env static, but not const

Changes in v3:
- Added documentation
- Removed use of lock and null check
- Changed event to OFFLINE + ERROR=DEAD

Changes in v2:
- Check that the root hub still exists before sending the uevent.
- Ensure died_work has completed before deallocating.

+What:		Raise a uevent when a USB Host Controller has died
+Date:		2019-04-17
+KernelVersion:	5.2
+Contact:	linux-usb@vger.kernel.org
+Description:	When the USB Host Controller has entered a state where it is no
+		longer functional a uevent will be raised. The uevent will
+		contain ACTION=offline and ERROR=DEAD.
+
+		Here is an example taken using udevadm monitor -p:
+
+		KERNEL[130.428945] offline  /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.0/usb2 (usb)

+		DEVNAME=/dev/bus/usb/002/001
+		DEVNUM=001
+		DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.0/usb2
+		DEVTYPE=usb_device
+		DRIVER=usb
+		ERROR=DEAD
+		MAJOR=189
+		MINOR=128
+		PRODUCT=1d6b/2/414

kbuild did not report the need for this feature, they only found bugs in
your previous submissions.  So no need for that line here.

I'll clean it up, thanks.
