Hi Himadri, and sorry about the late feedback on this one. I'm still trying to dig myself out of some backlog.

Replacing working code with shiny new helpers unfortunately often ends up introducing new bugs and I'm afraid there are a few examples of that in this series as well. I'll comment on the patches individually, but my impression is that we should primarily use these helpers to replace code which allocates a temporary buffer for each transfer as otherwise there's no clear gain from using them. Some of your patches contains unrelated changes which needs to go in separate patches if they're to be included at all. Please also try to write dedicated commit messages rater than reusing more or less the same stock message since not everything in these messages apply to each patch. You never mention that these helpers nicely hides the allocation of temporary transfer buffers in some cases for examples. In other places they instead introduce additional allocations which at least should have been highlighted. > Himadri Pandya (15): > usb: serial: ark3116: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() Nit: please also use an uppercase "USB" prefix. > usb: serial: belkin_sa: use usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: ch314: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: cp210x: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: cypress_m8: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: f81232: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: f81534: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: ftdi_sio: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: io_edgeport: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: io_ti: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: ipaq: use usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: ipw: use usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: iuu_phoenix: use usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: keyspan_pda: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > usb: serial: kl5kusb105: use usb_control_msg_recv() and > usb_control_msg_send() > > drivers/usb/serial/ark3116.c | 29 +---- > drivers/usb/serial/belkin_sa.c | 35 +++--- > drivers/usb/serial/ch341.c | 45 +++----- > drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c | 148 +++++++------------------ > drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.c | 38 ++++--- > drivers/usb/serial/f81232.c | 88 +++------------ > drivers/usb/serial/f81534.c | 63 +++-------- > drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c | 182 +++++++++++++------------------ > drivers/usb/serial/io_edgeport.c | 73 +++++-------- > drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c | 28 ++--- > drivers/usb/serial/ipaq.c | 9 +- > drivers/usb/serial/ipw.c | 107 ++++++------------ > drivers/usb/serial/iuu_phoenix.c | 5 +- > drivers/usb/serial/keyspan_pda.c | 172 ++++++++++++----------------- > drivers/usb/serial/kl5kusb105.c | 94 ++++++++-------- > 15 files changed, 406 insertions(+), 710 deletions(-) Johan
