+ * There are some SS USB devices which take longer time for link training.
+ * XHCI specs 4.19.4 says that when Link training is successful, port
+ * sets CSC bit to 1. So if SW reads port status before successful link
+ * training, then it will not find device to be present.
+ * USB Analyzer log with such buggy devices show that in some cases
+ * device switch on the RX termination after long delay of host enabling
+ * the VBUS. In few other cases it has been seen that device fails to
+ * negotiate link training in first attempt. It has been
+ * reported till now that few devices take as long as 2000 ms to train
+ * the link after host enabling its VBUS and termination. Following
+ * routine implements a 2000 ms timeout for link training. If in a case
+ * link trains before timeout, loop will exit earlier.
+ *
+ * FIXME: If a device was connected before suspend, but was removed
+ * while system was asleep, then the loop in the following routine will
+ * only exit at timeout.
+ *
+ * This routine should only be called when persist is enabled for a SS
+ * device.
