Hello.

Here is the set of USB patches for the 2.6.29-rc1 merge.

They also include the wimax patches, because of a dependancy on a change
in the USB core to support one of the wimax drivers.  The wimax patch
set has been acked by the network maintainers already, and they agreed
that it should go through the USB tree to you.

Other than wimax, the patchset includes:
	- some new USB drivers (gadget, host, and serial)
	- USB OTG (on-the-go) device support
	- lots of device id updates
	- renaming in the i2c drivers to move into the proper location
	  in the usb tree
	- usb-storage quirk handling cleaned up and reworked
	- sped up the option wireless usb driver speed.
- removal of info() and warn() usb macros now that the non-usb portions of the kernel have removed their usage of them.
	- lots of minor tweaks and reworks.

Please pull from:
	master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb-2.6.git/

All of these patches have been in the -next and -mm releases for a while.

The full patches will be sent to the linux-usb mailing list, if anyone
wants to see them.

thanks,

      USB: musb: build fixes for DaVinci
NAK this patch. I and David Brownell have asked Greg to pull this totally broken patch (broken while in MUSB tree, the original patch was sane) from his tree and all to no avail... The patch doesn't fix anything and only adds more breakage as it duplicates musb_platform_set_mode().

{sigh}

  Argh rather. The linux-usb bureaucracy deserves stronger expressions. :-P

I'll fix this up after Linus pulls, sorry about that.

  Brialliant. Better later than never, though.

I am dissatisfied how MUSB patches have been handled in general -- this is not the first breakage, and the valid patches have been lost, so DaVinci MUSB code keeps being broken since early 2.6.27-rc's (!) up to this time...

I agree, there's a big disconnect somewhere,

With Felipe disappearing again, not only 8 MUSB fixes posted by me prior to 2.6.28 hadn't gotten into stable kernel, now there's little chance they can get into -rc1 and so no chance for my several (yet unposted) cleanup/reorg patches to get there as well... sigh... :-(

 I'm sorry about that.  I now see David's request to change this patch in my archives :(

You forgot to mention my several prior mails -- succeffully ignored as well, unless they all managed to fall thru the cracks somehow...

thanks,

greg k-h

WBR, Sergei
