I will investigate, re-test and send a new series to Greg KH later in
the week. The preliminary result shows the problem is a result of a
clash with two different patches in the tip tree. My patch set and the
two patches it collides with context wise fix different things.
In order to resolve this it appears that the series will need to get
split into something for the tip tree and something for the USB tree, or
we wait for the next pull of the tip branch into the Linus's tree.
Thanks,
Jason.
