I have not tested, for lack of hardware :: it compiles. The location of status_cache is now within the ti_ohci struct. That organization not entirely consistent with the USB side, predicated by other variation between the drivers. The updated patch queue is available here. http://www.thebigcorporation.com/Sven/genirq-usb/genirq-usb-v2.tar.bz2 Bug fix: The declaration of status_cache has been made consistent u32. The former declaration of unsigned short (copied from uhci-hcd.c) it was probably too ambiguous for some architectures.
