David, I've already posted similar patch more than a month ago:

And I've posted similar patches regularly since 2.6.27-rc too.
I mean the patches are 95% similar this time (except for the empty line :-)
I'm *STILL* waiting to see a proper merge.
The original expectation was that when 2.6.27-final shipped,
the musb_hdrc code would build and work on one exactly one
platform in mainline: DaVinci. Several people worked to
make sure that could happen ... a lot of arch/arm updates
got merged to enable it. (The TUSB6010 stuff can't be used
there until N800/N810 board support merges; integrated OMAPs,
likewise -- platform support hadn't been mainlined.)
But when ARM shuffled all those headers around, and patches
to fix the broken DaVinci build never merged ... 2.6.27
shipped with that driver being unusable everywhere.
Same problem repeated for 2.6.28 kernel.
Yes, everybody now probably knows the sad story... unfortunately, it
hasn't made people move their a**es to fianlly fix the damn file.
