Could > you expand on what situations you see this as helping? 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 :) thanks, greg k-h
