Hi to All,

after a while of testing and searching I can come up with a patch
that fixes g_ether <-> iperf for fsl_udc on ARM i.MX35.

The sad part is that this kind of fix is already implemented for
marvell mv_udc driver since last year but still _not_ in the ~15
other *udc.c drivers.

See here:

usb: gadget: mv_udc: fix dtd dma confusion

So hereby I'm CC-ing all *udc.c maintainers to point out that this
issue maybe affects you too.

And maybe someone can explain if this: 
+				if (curr_td->next_td_ptr == EP_QUEUE_HEAD_NEXT_TERMINATE) {
is necessary and why (please see below).


Thanks,
 -- Christoph

The controller will hang when doing testings with g_ether and iperf
(tool for measuring maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth).  This patch adds a
delay to wait for controller to release dtd dma before freeing it.
