But I don't know the number of ports here. I could set this here to 500/900
and multiple later in hub_configure() by the number of ports.
Anyway, do you think this is correct? Anything > 500 for non-SS will replaced
with 500 in hub_configure:
| if (hdev == hdev->bus->root_hub) {
| if (hdev->bus_mA == 0 || hdev->bus_mA >= full_load)
| hub->mA_per_port = full_load;
| else {
| hub->mA_per_port = hdev->bus_mA;
| hub->limited_power = 1;
| }
going through the tree I saw most people set it to something around 200 (if at
all). There are a few omap/musb boards setting it to 500.
The interresting part is davinci of course. So there is comment that says
|"irlml6401 switches over 1A in under 8 msec"
and it calls davinci_setup_usb(1000, 8); which writes 255 in the power member
which musb in turn multiplies by 2. So we have 500mA again ;) I have no idea
how many ports they have.

Fixed up.
and the others as well. Will post them in a jiffy or two.
