The possible problem here is: it is a correct setup packet, the memory
it uses may be modified by controller wrongly (eg, try to get next setup
packet) before it finishes using. So, I suggest adding a setup buf for
struct cdns3 to store every setup packet after it receives to avoid
the original setup buffer corrupted.
