Trying to read from debugfs after the system has resumed from
hibernate causes a use-after-free and thus a protection fault.

Steps to reproduce:
Hibernate system, resume from hibernate, then run
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/xhci/*/command-ring/enqueue

The issue is caused by the xhci ring structures being reallocated
when the system is resumed, but pointers to the old structures
being retained in the debugfs files "private" field:

(gdb) list *(xhci_ring_enqueue_show+0x1e)
0xffffffff8170403e is in xhci_ring_enqueue_show (drivers/usb/host/xhci-debugfs.c:168).
163 {
164 dma_addr_t dma;
165 struct xhci_ring *ring = s->private;
166
167 dma = xhci_trb_virt_to_dma(ring->enq_seg, ring->enqueue);
168 seq_printf(s, "%pad\n", &dma);
169
170 return 0;
171 }
172

The proposed patch fixes this issue by storing a pointer to the xhci_ring
field in the xhci device structure in debugfs rather than directly
storing a pointer to the xhci_ring.

Thanks, that should work.
I'll try it out, and shorten the commit message a bit.
If everything works I'll apply it to my for-usb-linus branch
