No trailing ")" character? And no need for the extra space after the
new "(" one, right?

also, this should say it is "reducing", not "reduce"?

This comes from the USB specification, right? If so, can you add the
USB spec location for it in the comment?

> +#define USB_SHORT_ADDR_DEVICE_TIMEOUT_MS 500 /* 500ms */

This is for "broken" devices, right?

Did you run checkpatch.pl on your change? It should say the extra blank
line you added here isn't needed (if not, it shouldn't be added anyway,
that's not good kernel coding style.)

I miss where you add the timeout delay in the other host controller
drivers. Why only xhci? What about uhci/ohci/dwc3/etc.?
