    usb: chipidea: udc: fix memory access of shared memory on armv5 machines · a9c17430

    The udc uses an shared dma memory space between hard and software. This
    memory layout is described in ci13xxx_qh and ci13xxx_td which are marked
    with the attribute ((packed)).
    
    The compiler currently does not know about the alignment of the memory
    layout, and will create strb and ldrb operations.
    
    The Datasheet of the synopsys core describes, that some operations on
    the mapped memory need to be atomic double word operations. I.e. the
    next pointer addressing in the qhead, as otherwise the hardware will
    read wrong data and totally stuck.
    
    This is also possible while working with the current active td queue,
    and preparing the td->ptr.next in software while the hardware is still
    working with the current active td which is supposed to be changed:
    
    writeb(0xde, &td->ptr.next + 0x0); /* strb */
    writeb(0xad, &td->ptr.next + 0x1); /* strb */
    
    <----- hardware reads value of td->ptr.next and get stuck!
    
    writeb(0xbe, &td->ptr.next + 0x2); /* strb */
    writeb(0xef, &td->ptr.next + 0x3); /* strb */
    
    This appeares on armv5 machines where the hardware does not support
    unaligned 32bit operations.
    
    This patch adds the attribute ((aligned(4))) to the structures to tell
    the compiler to use 32bit operations. It also adds an wmb() for the
    prepared TD data before it gets enqueued into the qhead.
