This is a potential problem fix. This issue is possible to cause the first DMA supporting (e73a989 usb: renesas_usbhs: add DMAEngine support) at 2011, I think. We don't need in current -rc because I also think this is too late for it. I'm not sure we need a CC here. Best regards, Yoshihiro Shimoda > -- > balbi
