'xhci_urb_enqueue()' is passed a 'mem_flags' argument, because "URBs may be
submitted in interrupt context" (see comment related to 'usb_submit_urb()'
in 'drivers/usb/core/urb.c')

So this flag should be used in all the calling chain.
Up to now, 'xhci_check_maxpacket()' which is only called from
'xhci_urb_enqueue()', uses GFP_KERNEL.

Be safe and pass the mem_flags to this function as well.

Fixes: ddba5cd0aeff ("xhci: Use command structures when queuing commands on the command ring")

I'm not 100% sure of the Fixes tag. The commit is the only that introduced
this GFP_KERNEL, but I've not checked what was the behavior before that.

If the patch is correct, I guess that a cc stable should be welcome.

This patch was proposed on 14/08/20. It has been rebased on latest -next tree.

Added to queue, and added stable tag

Thanks
