No, sorry, no new module parameters, I'm trying to delete them wherever possible.

A module parameter will not work there. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
