Thank you very much. Another DbC usage is to enable DbC during early boot time, and run GDB protocol data or early printk message over it. The early printk implementation has been merged in 4.12-rc1. commit aeb9dd1 <usb/early: Add driver for xhci debug capability> In this code, the DbC product id is still a place holder (0x0004). I am really sorry. I should apply a valid product id from you during the code review time. But I forgot it since almost all attention was paid to early driver itself at that time. We could use the same ID as you allocated here or, preferably, use a different ID since we're dealing with different functionality.
