Hello guys.  I didn't get a response the last time so hopefully with
3.11 out I'll get one this time.

I need to be able to generate interrupts from a USB device driver while
servicing the complete() function of an interrupt URB.
No you don't :)

Hmm, am I wrong that if I want my gpios to be poll()-able from userspace (via /sys/class/gpio/gpio<num>/value), that I must generate an IRQ and populate my .to_irq function of gpio_chip? Or is it cleaner to find the dirent and directly call sysfs_notify_dirent() to facilitate this behavior to userspace?

Of course, this will wont enable drivers that want an irq in the kernel, but aside from this ADNS-9800, I don't need that functionality.

Thanks,
Daniel
