Note that we can do bus_dmatag_subregion() without the bus_dmamap_sync()
calls here, because all DMA memory used by the USB subsystem comes from
bus_dmamem_alloc(). I'm adding bus_dmamap_sync() calls here because they
also should cause memory barriers, which are needed to avoid race
condition between host and controller in the DMA descriptors linked lists
management.
