Why are you wanting to grab a "naked" reference to the usb host controller device here? What ensures that it is correct (hint, lots of host controllers do not handle dma), and what prevents it from going away underneath you? And if storage doesn't have this problem, I can't see that it would be that difficult for DRM to solve it correctly :) thanks, greg k-h
