[PATCH RFC] Input: yealink - abort URB submission on fatal errors

The yealink driver uses two URBs (interrupt and control) to communicate
with the device. When an URB completes with an error status (such as
-EPROTO), the completion handlers (urb_irq_callback and urb_ctl_callback)
log the error but do not abort. Instead, they proceed to process the
potentially invalid data and unconditionally resubmit the URB.
Because control URBs are not rate-limited by the USB core, resubmitting a
failing control URB in a tight loop floods the console with error messages
and keeps the CPU completely busy in the softirq context. This eventually
triggers an RCU preempt stall:
yealink 3-1:36.0: unexpected response 0
yealink 3-1:36.0: urb_ctl_callback - urb status -71
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
Call Trace:

Fix this by explicitly checking the URB status for fatal errors (-ENOENT,
-ECONNRESET, -ESHUTDOWN, -EPROTO, -EPIPE, -EILSEQ) in both
urb_irq_callback() and urb_ctl_callback(). If a fatal error is detected,
the callback now returns early, breaking the infinite resubmission loop and
preventing the RCU stall.
