Nit, you can wrap your changelog text at 72 columns to make it easier to

Why the different names, "fbsched" and "usf"?  what does "fbsched" mean?

Why are you touching code outside of drivers/staging/ at all?  That's
usually a good sign that this should not be a staging driver as they
should all be self-contained so nothing else in the kernel is messed
with.

No #ifdef in .c code.  And why not EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL?

Again, no #ifdef in .c code should be ever done, especially for
something as simple as this.  Otherwise the code is totally
unmaintainable over time.
