In fact the device address is an unsigned 7-bit value.  The size of the 
variable we store it in doesn't matter much.

BUT!  If it's going to be stored in a regular int then it's foolish to 
leave a 16-bit gap between it and the preceding field in the structure.  
It should be added at some appropriate spot in the structure, not at 
the end.

Overall I think this should be broken up into two patches: one to
introduce the new field and one to implement Clear-TT-Buffer for xHCI.

Furthermore, update_devnum() in hub.c should do:

	if (udev->devaddr == 0)
		udev->devaddr = devnum;

Then the code usb_hub_clear_tt_buffer() can just use devaddr without
needing to check the HCD type.
