Hi Greg, It was section 2.5 of the kernel development process, "staging trees". In particular, statement "where many sub-directories for drivers or filesystems that are on their way to being added to the kernel tree live" caught our attention. Now, by reading it once again, I see that the rest of the section is in line with your comment. We'll address all comments received so far, and resubmit patch onto appropriate repository. With that being said, is USB subsystem tree (drivers/usb within usb.git repo) correct one? Please, advise. Thanks. Regards, Vladimir.
