I carry changes to drivers/usb/host all the time that can affect whci
due to changes in the USB hcd interface.  Also, people end up sending me
patches for these files for things like header file cleanups and other
minor stuff.

So that can potentially conflict with stuff you are doing without the
my knowledge.

Also, it would be good to have the linux-usb developers at least review
any changes to these files, myself included, right?

It shouldn't be any more work for you, just send the patches to me and
forget about them, I'll queue them up at the proper time :)
