This lets us remove a lot of code in the drivers that were all checking
the same thing. It also found some bugs in a few of the drivers, which
has been fixed up.

Reject URBs to _all_ devices when their host controllers are suspended;
even root hub registers will be unavailable. Also, don't reject urbs
to root hubs in other cases; the only upstream link is through that
controller (on PCI or whatever SOC bus is in use).

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

Greg,
This patch fixes the kmalloc() flags argument type in USB
subsystem; hopefully all of its occurences. The patch was
made against patch-2.6.12-git2 from Jun 20.
Cleanup of flags for kmalloc() in USB subsystem.

In response to complaints about excessive latency in the uhci-hcd driver
I'm planning to convert it to a top-half/bottom-half design. It turns out
that to do this, the USB API has to be modified slightly since the driver
will not be able to meet one of the guarantees in the current API. This
patch changes some kerneldoc, specifying the weaker guarantee.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
