USB: Check for dropped connection before switching to full speed
Some buggy USB disk adapters disconnect and reconnect multiple times during the enumeration procedure. This may lead to a device connecting at full speed instead of high speed, because when the USB stack sees that a device isn't able to enumerate at high speed, it tries to hand the connection over to a full-speed companion controller. The logic for doing this is careful to check that the device is still connected. But this check is inadequate if the device disconnects and reconnects before the check is done. The symptom is that a device works, but much more slowly than it is capable of operating. The situation was made worse recently by commit 22547c4 ("usb: hub: Wait for connection to be reestablished after port reset"), which increases the delay following a reset before a disconnect is recognized, thus giving the device more time to reconnect. This patch makes the check more robust. If the device was disconnected at any time during enumeration, we will now skip the full-speed handover.
