A long time ago, the USB code was interrupt-driven and used top-level

We need to be able to specify timeouts explicitly to handle cases like
USB hard disks spinning up, without having ridiculously long timeouts
across the board (which would cause endless waiting when things go
wrong anywhere else). So, it's time to rip out the old broken nonsense
and actually pass through timeouts to USB host controller drivers, so
they can be implemented properly.
I like this.
