Subject: usb: host: xhci: fix compliance mode workaround

commit 96908589a8b2584b1185f834d365f5cc360e8226 upstream.

Commit 71c731a (usb: host: xhci: Fix Compliance Mode
on SN65LVP3502CP Hardware) implemented a workaround
for a known issue with Texas Instruments' USB 3.0
redriver IC but it left a condition where any xHCI
host would be taken out of reset if port was placed
in compliance mode and there was no device connected
to the port.

That condition would trigger a fake connection to a
non-existent device so that usbcore would trigger a
warm reset of the port, thus taking the link out of
reset.

This has the side-effect of preventing any xHCI host
connected to a Linux machine from starting and running
the USB 3.0 Electrical Compliance Suite because the
port will mysteriously taken out of compliance mode
and, thus, xHCI won't step through the necessary
compliance patterns for link validation.

This patch fixes the issue by just adding a missing
check for XHCI_COMP_MODE_QUIRK inside
xhci_hub_report_usb3_link_state() when PORT_CAS isn't
set.

This patch should be backported to all kernels containing
commit 71c731a.
