The working group "VISA for Linux" of the IVI Foundation
www.ivifoundation.org specifies common rules, shared libraries and
drivers to implement the specification of "VPP-4.3: The VISA Library"
on Linux to be compatible with implementations on other operating systems.
The USBTMC protocol is part of the "VISA Library" that is used by many
popular T&M applications.
Initial implementations for Linux based on libusb has been created.
However using one common USBTMC driver results in more benefits:
- Multiple applications can share access to the same instruments.
- The driver handles SRQ conflicts.
- Simplifies definition of udev rules for USBTMC devices.
- Simplifies development of applications using T&M instruments.
The following collaborative patches meet the requirements of the IVI
Foundation to implement the library based on the usbtmc driver.
Improvements in the data transfer rate of over 130 MByte/s for
usb 3.x connections have been measured.

What changed from v3 of this patch set? That needs to be listed
somewhere, right?
v3 included patch "usb: usbtmc: Add support for 32 bit compat applications"
which you already have added to your usb-next branch.
You did not accept (2nd and now 1st) patch
"usb: usbtmc: Add ioctl for generic requests on control"
which had a superfluous "#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT".
So v4 just removed this superfluous "#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT" without any change
of further descriptions.
