Why this rename? Is that backed by the OSX file? I don't care much, but
it seems useless.

That I can understand,

But not that. Why?

Also ack.

No introducing leading whitespace please.

Ditto.

Ditto.

You need more rationale for the algorithm change.

Shouldn't this depend on the new format appletouch?

Useless whitespace, CodingStyle for comments looks differently.

[stopped here]

Please read CodingStyle, then split your patch at least into the
renames/code changes that don't really change anything and the actual
algorithm changes. Also, if you're feeling motivated, it would be good
if the "is_atp_xxx" foo was replaced by the driver_info in struct
usb_device_id.
