Nothing is using them, since they were just introduced. I wanted to get the API changed before they make it to mainline and somebody starts using them. You just applied the patch that introduced them into usb-next on 7/31/2024, just after v6.11-rc1 so they haven't yet made it to the mainline kernel. This is the patch that introduces them: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CO1PR17MB541911B0C80D21E4B575E48CE1112@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > > thanks, > > greg k-h
