Here's the updated patch set to increase the number of USB to serial devices that we can support at once. Changes from v1: - now only support 512 instead of 3000 devices, as that's all we really need / want at this point in time. - removed usb_serial.minor field as it doesn't make any sense now. - addressed review comments / issues found in first round of patches. Overall, the diffstat is still nice, we are removing more code than we are adding: drivers/staging/serqt_usb2/serqt_usb2.c | 36 +++----- drivers/usb/serial/ark3116.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/bus.c | 6 - drivers/usb/serial/console.c | 2 drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c | 2 drivers/usb/serial/cypress_m8.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/digi_acceleport.c | 6 - drivers/usb/serial/f81232.c | 7 - drivers/usb/serial/garmin_gps.c | 6 - drivers/usb/serial/io_edgeport.c | 60 +++++-------- drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c | 23 ++--- drivers/usb/serial/keyspan.c | 29 ++---- drivers/usb/serial/metro-usb.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c | 39 ++++---- drivers/usb/serial/mos7840.c | 59 ++++--------- drivers/usb/serial/opticon.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/pl2303.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/quatech2.c | 9 -- drivers/usb/serial/sierra.c | 2 drivers/usb/serial/ssu100.c | 2 drivers/usb/serial/ti_usb_3410_5052.c | 12 +- drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c | 139 ++++++++++++++++---------------- drivers/usb/serial/usb_wwan.c | 4 drivers/usb/serial/whiteheat.c | 22 ++--- include/linux/usb/serial.h | 15 +-- 25 files changed, 224 insertions(+), 276 deletions(-) This series is on top of my usb-linus branch of my usb.git tree on git.kernel.org, as it relies on some patches in there already.
