how has this series been tested ? Let me rephrase this: was this series
tested at all ? Note that if we are in gadget mode, we will disable
physical endpoints 0 and 1, which will break USB communication requiring
a new enumeration later. On top of that, for versions of the core which
are configured without hibernation support - in fact for all cores
currently, since we don't have hibernation support implemented in this
driver -, we will loose communication with the far end (be it a host or
a device).

You mention there are no external dependencies to make async suspend
work on this driver, but that's far from the truth. As it is today, this
driver needs a lot of work to learn about all the details about all
different versions of this IP when it comes to supporting async PM.

I suppose this was tested with 500 other out-of-tree patches and you
simply cherry-picked this patch to send upstream ? Am I right ? It
certainly looks like it.

Please let us know how has this been tested ? Did you run USB30CV ? Did
you make sure to run through USB Certification interoperability tests ?

Did you leave some stress test running for weeks before sending this
patch out ? Is Exynos 5 working fine out of mainline ?

cheers
