EHCI controllers see transfers as a queue of transfer descriptors
(qTDs), each of which can represent an aligned area of up to 20KB. Each
qTD is processed separately, which means that a single USB packet cannot
span multiple qTDs.
While this should not be a problem according to the specification, some
USB storage devices seem to get confused when a packet in the middle of
a transfer is smaller than the maximum packet size (512 bytes) due to
falling on a qTD boundary. This patch aligns the total transfer length
per qTD to 512 bytes to avoid that problem (any excess bytes will simply
roll over to the next qTD).
