The ASMedia ASM3242 (1b21:3242) reports the SuperSpeed speed ID together
with two active lanes for a link that is actually running at USB 3.2
Gen 2x2 after a cold boot. Linux therefore classifies the device as
USB 3.0 SuperSpeed and reports 5000M/x2, although the measured
throughput is 1.49-1.60 GB/s (11.9-12.8 Gbps), which is above the
physical ceiling of a 10 Gbps link (~1.25 GB/s).
Patch 1 is a generic correctness fix: get_port_ssp_rate() currently
cannot recognise USB 3.2 Gen 1x2 at all, because it rejects any
matching sublink entry whose link protocol is not SuperSpeedPlus
before it looks at the number of active lanes.
Patch 2 adds a controller quirk so that this hardware reports the
Gen 2x2 speed ID. The raw extended port status, the measured
throughput and the list of resets that do and do not restore the
correct report are all in the patch description.
The wrong report is 100% reproducible after every reboot and is only
cleared by an S3 suspend/resume. Raw data (lsusb -v, lspci -vv, sysfs
and BOS dumps, kernel log) is available on request.

get_port_ssp_rate() rejects every matching sublink speed attribute whose
link protocol (LP) is not SuperSpeedPlus by jumping to the "unknown"
exit before it looks at the number of active lanes.
USB 3.2 Gen 1x2 runs two SuperSpeed (Gen 1) lanes, so the matching
sublink entry advertises LP = SuperSpeed while two lanes are in use.
The current code therefore returns USB_SSP_GEN_UNKNOWN for such a link
and the USB core falls back to USB_SPEED_SUPER, reporting 5000 Mbps.
Handle the two-lane cases before rejecting non-SuperSpeedPlus entries:
>= 10 Gbps per lane and 2 lanes -> USB_SSP_GEN_2x2
>= 5 Gbps per lane and 2 lanes -> USB_SSP_GEN_1x2
so that a genuine Gen 1x2 link is reported as 10000 Mbps instead of
5000 Mbps.

The ASMedia ASM3242 (1b21:3242) reports the SuperSpeed speed ID (4) in
PORTSC[13:10], together with two active lanes, for a link that is
actually running at Gen 2x2 after a cold boot.
xhci_get_ext_port_status() copies that ID into dwExtPortStatus, so the
USB core matches SSID 4 (whose LP is SuperSpeed, not SuperSpeedPlus),
returns USB_SSP_GEN_UNKNOWN and falls back to USB_SPEED_SUPER:
$ lsusb -t
|__ Port 001: Dev 002, If 0, Class=Mass Storage, Driver=uas, 5000M/x2
$ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1/speed
5000
while the link really runs at 20 Gbps:
GetPortStatus(HUB_EXT_PORT_STATUS) -> dwExtPortStatus = 0x00001144
(RX/TX speed id 4, RX/TX lanes 2) after a cold boot
GetPortStatus(HUB_EXT_PORT_STATUS) -> dwExtPortStatus = 0x00001177
(RX/TX speed id 7, RX/TX lanes 2) after an S3 resume
O_DIRECT throughput, cross-checked with /proc/diskstats:
1.49 - 1.60 GB/s (11.9 - 12.8 Gbps) in the "5000M" state
1.63 - 1.83 GB/s (13.0 - 14.7 Gbps) in the "20000M" state
Both exceed the physical ceiling of a 10 Gbps link (~1.25 GB/s), so the
link is Gen 2x2 in both states and only the controller's report is
wrong. Only an S3 suspend/resume makes the controller report speed ID
7; a device re-plug, a port disable/enable, an xhci_hcd unbind/bind, a
PCI function reset and a PCI remove+rescan all leave the wrong value in
place.
Add XHCI_ASM3242_SPEED_QUIRK and, when it is set, report the Gen 2x2
speed ID when the controller reports SuperSpeed with two active lanes.
