Pull USB / Thunderbolt updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of USB and Thunderbolt changes for 6.16-rc1.
Included in here are the following:

- USB offload support for audio devices.

I think this takes the record for the most number of patch series
(30+) over the longest period of time (2+ years) to get merged
properly.

Many props go to Wesley Cheng for seeing this effort through, they
took a major out-of-tree hacked-up-monstrosity that was created by
multiple vendors for their specific devices, got it all merged into
a semi-coherent set of changes, and got all of the different major
subsystems to agree on how this should be implemented both with
changes to their code as well as userspace apis, AND wrangled the
hardware companies into agreeing to go forward with this, despite
making them all redo work they had already done in their private
device trees.

This feature offers major power savings on embedded devices where a
USB audio stream can continue to flow while the rest of the system
is sleeping, something that devices running on battery power really
care about. There are still some more small tweaks left to be done
here, and those patches are still out for review and arguing among
the different hardware companies, but this is a major step forward
and a great example of how to do upstream development well.

- small number of thunderbolt fixes and updates, things seem to be
slowing down here (famous last words...)

- xhci refactors and reworking to try to handle some rough corner
cases in some hardware implementations where things don't always
work properly

- typec driver updates

- USB3 power management reworking and updates

- Removal of some old and orphaned UDC gadget drivers that had not
been used in a very long time, dropping over 11 thousand lines from
the tree, always a nice thing, making up for the 12k lines added
for the USB offload feature.

- lots of little updates and fixes in different drivers

All of these have been in linux-next for over 2 weeks, the USB offload
logic has been in there for 8 weeks now, with no reported issues"

usb: dwc3: core: Don't touch resets and clocks

When the core is integrated with glue, it's reasonable to assume that
the glue driver will have to touch the IP before/after the core takes
the hardware out and into reset. As such the glue must own these
resources and be allowed to turn them on/off outside the core's
handling.

Allow the platform or glue layer to indicate if the core logic for
clocks and resets should be skipped to deal with this.

usb: dwc3: core: Expose core driver as library

usb: dwc3: core: Expose core driver as library

The DWC3 IP block is handled by three distinct device drivers: XHCI,
DWC3 core and a platform specific (optional) DWC3 glue driver.

This has resulted in, at least in the case of the Qualcomm glue, the
presence of a number of layering violations, where the glue code either
can't handle, or has to work around, the fact that core might not probe
deterministically.

An example of this is that the suspend path should operate slightly
different depending on the device operating in host or peripheral mode,
and the only way to determine the operating state is to peek into the
core's drvdata.

The Qualcomm glue driver is expected to make updates in the qscratch
register region (the "glue" region) during role switch events, but with
the glue and core split using the driver model, there is no reasonable
way to introduce listeners for mode changes.

Split the dwc3 core platform_driver callbacks and their implementation
and export the implementation, to make it possible to deterministically
instantiate the dwc3 core as part of the dwc3 glue drivers and to
allow flattening of the DeviceTree representation.
