USB: xhci: Performance - move functions that find ep ring.

I've been using perf to measure the top symbols while transferring 1GB of data
on a USB 3.0 drive with dd.  This is using the raw disk with /dev/sdb, with a
block size of 1K.

During performance testing, the top symbol was xhci_triad_to_transfer_ring(), a
function that should return immediately if streams are not enabled for an
endpoint.  It turned out that the functions to find the endpoint ring was
defined in xhci-mem.c and used in xhci-ring.c and xhci-hcd.c.  I moved a copy of
xhci_triad_to_transfer_ring() and xhci_urb_to_transfer_ring() into xhci-ring.c
and declared them static.  I also made a static version of
xhci_urb_to_transfer_ring() in xhci.c.

This improved throughput on a 1GB read of the raw disk with dd from
186MB/s to 195MB/s, and perf reported sampling the xhci_triad_to_transfer_ring()
0.06% of the time, rather than 9.26% of the time.
