[PATCH] USB: Set QH bit in UHCI framelist entries
This patch fixes the error in the UHCI driver found by Stuart Hayes. It
adds the UHCI_PTR_QH bit into the initial entries stored in the hardware
framelist. It's not entirely clear how the driver ever managed to work
with these bits not set; apparently by coincidence the QH entries
resembled TD entries sufficiently closely to fool the hardware.
