Hi Krzysztof

xhci_ring_free has been removed from v3..
The reason why I want to export is for managing vendor specific ring.
I want to alloc and free vendor specific ring on specific address.
It's done with xhci hooks.

Below is the patch of v3

Export symbols for xhci hooks usage:
xhci_get_slot_ctx
xhci_get_endpoint_address
- Allow xhci hook to get ep_ctx from the xhci_container_ctx for
getting the ep_ctx information to know which ep is offloading and
comparing the context in remote subsystem memory if needed.

xhci_ring_alloc
- Allow xhci hook to allocate vendor specific ring.

xhci_trb_virt_to_dma
- Used to retrieve the DMA address of vendor specific ring.

xhci_segment_free
xhci_link_segments
- Allow xhci hook to handle vendor specific segment.

xhci_initialize_ring_info
- Allow xhci hook to initialize vendor specific ring.

xhci_check_trb_in_td_math
- Allow xhci hook to Check TRB math for validation.

xhci_address_device
- Allow override to give configuration info to Co-processor.

xhci_bus_suspend
xhci_bus_resume
- Allow override of suspend and resume for power scenario.

xhci_remove_stream_mapping
- Allow xhci hook to remove stream mapping.

Jung Daehwan.
