All we know is that the > same bug shows up in devices from at least 3 different, and presumably > independent, vendors. > > The workarounds have instead been designed to automatically apply > when necessary, and to have as little impact as possible on unaffected > devices. The series has been tested on a number of devices both with > and without these bugs. > > The series should apply cleanly to net/master, net-next/master and > stable/linux-3.8.y Series applied and queued up for -stable, thanks! -- 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
