Public bug reported:

 SRU Justification:
 On all of Intel's shipping xHCI platforms, including both servers and clients, the controller can cause the shutdown process to hang.
  This is because existing Intel xHCI controllers require a delay of 1 mS,after setting the CMD_RESET bit in command register, before accessing any HC registers. This allows the HC to complete the reset operation and be ready for HC register access.

Fix:
Patch in 4.4-rc2
commit a5964396190d0c40dd549c23848c282fffa5d1f2

    xhci: Workaround to get Intel xHCI reset working more reliably

Regression Potential: Just add a 1ms delay for xhci_reset, so
regressions are very unlikely.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
