USB: EHCI: fix handling of dead controllers
This patch (as1165) makes a few small changes in the logic used by
ehci-hcd when it encounters a controller error:
Instead of printing out the masked status, it prints the
original status as read directly from the hardware.
It doesn't check for the STS_HALT status bit before taking
action. The mere fact that the STS_FATAL bit is set means
that something bad has happened and the controller needs to
be reset. With the old code this test could never succeed
because the STS_HALT bit was masked out from the status.
I anticipate that this will prevent the occasional "irq X: nobody cared"
problem people encounter when their EHCI controllers die.
