The amount of new TRBs needed is calculated incorrectly when expanding a transfer ring. The room_on_ring() helper will correctly report that the ring needs expansion if the enqueue pointer is about to reach the dequeue segment. If enqueue reaches the dequeue segment then there is no easy way to expand the ring by adding new segments between enqueue and dequeue. This leads to ring expansion even if num_trbs_free is larger than num_trbs we are queueing. As a result we try to store a negative number in a unsigned int, leading to a huge percieved trb need, and doubling of ring size. Rework and rename the room_on_ring() to a helper that checks if ring needs expansion, and return number of new segments needed. Don't rely on the tracked ring->num_trbs_free value as turns out it has been unreliable. Use ring enqueue and dequeue positions to determine expansion need. The unsigned int issue was first reported first Chao zeng, and a bit later seen in a real world bug.

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.
