Frank, As you may notice, my main "job" with regards to media stuff is to be the media core maintainer. My work as a driver maintainer or as a developer is forced to go to a second plane, as my time is limited. So, I generally trust that driver developers are doing the right thing. ATM, I won't have anytime soon to test patches. So, if those patches require any test from me, they'll need to be postponed to 3.10, as I'm finishing the handling of the patches for 3.9 today. Also, from my side, there are simply too much patches sent to me, either on my inbox (where I never read) and/or at linux-media ML. The last ones I get from patchwork. Sometimes, even before picking the patches, I tag everything with RFC or REVIEW on it as RFC. Then I handle the remaining ones. This is to reduce the load to an acceptable work queue. So, if you think that the USB patches are ok, just send it to the ML without tagging it, and I'll analyze and apply if I believe that they're ok. I'll eventually test the em28xx driver later, when I found some time. If otherwise you think they may not be ready yet, the better to wait for Devin to test, if it has some time, or send me a separate email asking for me to test the patches.
