I chose my analogy carefully.  If we were doing better than we're
doing right now, it would be like a jigsaw puzzle.  That's the next
step.  Right now, it is Jenga.

The optimal situation is tetris with entirely square blocks.  That's
two steps away, but EHCI makes it difficult. Mark the QH idle, wait
for the HC to handshake, alter, reactivate, repeat.  There will need
to be minor cleverness to prevent it from taking bloody forever while
holding a spinlock.  Two stage commit with budget locking seperated
out...

It was, effectively, up until now.  The only reservation of a slot was
the presence of a URB in that slot in the schedule.
