  * Host Controller Drivers (HCDs) place all the URBs for a particular
  * endpoint in a queue.  Normally the queue advances as the controller
- * hardware processes each request.  But when an URB terminates with any
- * fault (such as an error, or being unlinked) its queue stops, at least
- * until that URB's completion routine returns.  It is guaranteed that
- * the queue will not restart until all its unlinked URBs have been fully
- * retired, with their completion routines run, even if that's not until
- * some time after the original completion handler returns.
