The changes you introduce in ehci-hcd.c would certainly deserve their 
own preliminary patch in this serie and not be squashed into this one imho.

This sounds way too generic as a name to be exported as is, so please 
namespace this with ehci_hcd_ at least.

Looks unrelated to the goals of your patches.

I would rename this to ehci_hcd_halt to express the fact that it takes 
an ehci_hcd structure pointer as parameter, can be addressed later.

Same here, way too generic to be exported as is as a symbol name.
