Shuah Khan 8f36b3b4e1 usbip: add USBIP_URB_* URB transfer flags
USBIP driver packs URB transfer flags in network packets that are
exchanged between Server (usbip_host) and Client (vhci_hcd).

URB_* flags are internal to kernel and could change. Where as USBIP
URB flags exchanged in network packets are USBIP user API must not
change.

Add USBIP_URB* flags to make this an explicit API and change the
client and server to map them. Details as follows:

Client tx path (USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT):
- Maps URB_* to USBIP_URB_* when it sends USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT packet.

Server rx path (USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT):
- Maps USBIP_URB_* to URB_* when it receives USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT packet.

Flags aren't included in USBIP_CMD_UNLINK and USBIP_RET_SUBMIT packets
and no special handling is needed for them in the following cases:

- Server rx path (USBIP_CMD_UNLINK)
- Client rx path & Server tx path (USBIP_RET_SUBMIT)

Update protocol documentation to reflect the change.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
