The INGENIC 17EF:6161 touchscreen composite device has a ~55-second
watchdog that resets the USB device if the bulk-IN endpoint on the CDC
data interface goes unread. The existing ALWAYS_POLL_CTRL quirk keeps
the notification endpoint (ctrlurb / EP 0x82) polling continuously, but
that alone is insufficient: the firmware monitors bulk-IN activity, not
just notification-endpoint activity.
Add acm_submit_read_urbs() calls to the two ALWAYS_POLL_CTRL paths that
already restart the ctrlurb:
1. acm_probe(): start bulk reads at probe time alongside the ctrlurb,
so the watchdog is satisfied from first bind without requiring a
userspace process to open /dev/ttyACMn.
2. acm_port_shutdown(): restart bulk reads after port close alongside
the ctrlurb restart, so the watchdog keeps running when the last
TTY user closes the port.
acm_read_bulk_callback() already resubmits each URB unconditionally on
normal completion, so once submitted the reads remain active until an
explicit kill (disconnect, suspend). acm_submit_read_urb() is a no-op
for URBs that are already in flight (read_urbs_free bit clear), so the
existing acm_port_activate() call remains correct and races are avoided.
Tested on Lenovo Yoga Book 9 14IAH10 (83KJ): without this patch the
device resets every ~55 s when no TTY is open; with it the device
remains stable indefinitely.
