Consider a scenario when a HS headset fails resume and the hub performs
a logical disconnect, the USB core tears down endpoints and calls
hcd->check_bandwidth() on the way out, which with xHCI translates to a
drop-only Configure Endpoint command (add_flags == SLOT_FLAG, drop_flags
!= 0). If the slot is already disabled (slot_id == 0) or the virtual
device has been freed, issuing this Configure Endpoint command is
pointless and may appear stuck until event handling catches up,
causing unnecessary delays during disconnect teardown.
Fix this by adding a check in xhci_check_bandwidth(), return success
immediately if slot_id == 0 or vdev is missing, preventing the
Configure Endpoint command from being queued at all. Additionally,
in xhci_configure_endpoint() for drop-only Configure Endpoint operations,
return success early if slot_id == 0 or vdev is already freed,
avoiding spurious command waits.

Makes sense to prevent unnecessary 'configure endpoint' commands
Could you share more details how we end up tearing down endpoints and
calling xhci_check_bandwidth() after vdev is freed and slot_id set to zero?
Did the whole xHC controller fail to resume and was reinitialized in
xhci_resume() power_lost path?
Or is this related to audio offload and xhci sideband usage?
If we end up in this situation in normal headset resume failure then there
might be something else wrong.
