+/*
+ * Detailed Interface Description
+ * ==============================
+ * The pvUSB interface is using a split driver design: a frontend driver in
+ * the guest and a backend driver in a driver domain (normally dom0) having
+ * access to the physical USB device(s) being passed to the guest.
+ *
+ * The frontend and backend drivers use XenStore to initiate the connection
+ * between them, the I/O activity is handled via two shared ring pages and an
+ * event channel. As the interface between frontend and backend is at the USB
+ * host connector level, multiple (up to 31) physical USB devices can be
+ * handled by a single connection.
+ *
+ * The Xen pvUSB device name is "qusb", so the frontend's XenStore entries are
+ * to be found under "device/qusb", while the backend's XenStore entries are
+ * under "backend/<guest-dom-id>/qusb".
+ *
+ * When a new pvUSB connection is established, the frontend needs to setup the
+ * two shared ring pages for communication and the event channel. The ring
+ * pages need to be made available to the backend via the grant table
+ * interface.
+ *
+ * One of the shared ring pages is used by the backend to inform the frontend
+ * about USB device plug events (device to be added or removed). This is the
+ * "conn-ring".
+ *
+ * The other ring page is used for USB I/O communication (requests and
+ * responses). This is the "urb-ring".
+ *
+ * Feature and Parameter Negotiation
+ * =================================
+ * The two halves of a Xen pvUSB driver utilize nodes within the XenStore to
+ * communicate capabilities and to negotiate operating parameters. This
+ * section enumerates these nodes which reside in the respective front and
+ * backend portions of the XenStore, following the XenBus convention.
+ *
+ * Any specified default value is in effect if the corresponding XenBus node
+ * is not present in the XenStore.
+ *
+ * XenStore nodes in sections marked "PRIVATE" are solely for use by the
+ * driver side whose XenBus tree contains them.

+ *
+ * Protocol Description
+ * ====================
+ *
+ *-------------------------- USB device plug events --------------------------
+ *
+ * USB device plug events are send via the "conn-ring" shared page. As only
+ * events are being sent, the respective requests from the frontend to the
+ * backend are just dummy ones.
+ * The events sent to the frontend have the following layout:
+ *         0                1                 2               3        octet
+ * +----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+
+ * |               id                |    portnum     |     speed      | 4
+ * +----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+
+ *   id - uint16_t, event id (taken from the actual frontend dummy request)
+ *   portnum - uint8_t, port number (1 ... 31)
+ *   speed - uint8_t, device XENUSB_SPEED_*, XENUSB_SPEED_NONE == unplug
+ *
+ * The dummy request:
+ *         0                1        octet
+ * +----------------+----------------+
+ * |               id                | 2
+ * +----------------+----------------+
+ *   id - uint16_t, guest supplied value (no need for being unique)
+ *
+ *-------------------------- USB I/O request ---------------------------------
+ *
+ * A single USB I/O request on the "urb-ring" has the following layout:
+ *         0                1                 2               3        octet
