ehci-hcd: Boost transfer speed

This patch takes advantage of the hardware EHCI qTD queuing mechanism to avoid
software and transfer splitting overhead so as to make transfers as fast as
possible.

The only drawback is a call to memalign. However, this is fast compared to the
transfer timings, and the heap size to allocate is small, e.g. 128 kiB in the
worst case for a transfer length of 65535 packets of 512 bytes.

Tested on i.MX25, i.MX35 and i.MX51. In my test conditions, the speed gain was
very significant (several times faster), which is really appreciable when
accessing large files.
