Usb core introduce the mechanism of giveback of URB in tasklet context to
reduce hardware interrupt handling time. On some test situation(such as
FIO with 4KB block size), when tasklet callback function called to
giveback URB, interrupt handler add URB node to the bh->head list also.
If check bh->head list again after finish all URB giveback of local_list,
then it may introduce a "dynamic balance" between giveback URB and add URB
to bh->head list. This tasklet callback function may not exit for a long
time, which will cause other tasklet function calls to be delayed. Some
real-time applications(such as KB and Mouse) will see noticeable lag.

Fix this issue by taking new URBs giveback in next tasklet function call.
Add a member high_prio for structure giveback_urb_bh and replace the local
high_prio_bh variable with this structure member in usb_hcd_giveback_urb.

v1->v2:
- Fix compile warning by remove label "restart".
- Modify the patch description info.
- Change structure member from hi_priority to high_prio.

Okay,this Boolean variable should be initialized to ture.
Thanks for your suggestion.
