Interesting.  This is actually a couple different things ... the OTG
related bits would IMO be good to split out from the EHCI ones, and
from the OHCI ones.

Maybe once 2.6.15 gets out you'd split these out a bit?

Actually that patch started with Matt Porter, although some earlier
non-mergeable versions came from ARC (now TDI).  And splitting it out
turned up a bunch of problems, mostly now fixed.

Actually you included a preview in this patch.  Interesting ... that
makes three OTG implementations I've seen on Linux ... the second
highspeed one, too.

I think you shouldn't need that OTG_HIGHSPEED symbol, given there's
already USB_OTG and USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED, that's implicit.  And in
fact, it'd be implicit inside EHCI given just USB_OTG!

That OTG stuff needs work yet.  No <linux/usb.h> changes should be
needed, and I'm not sure what this "relaxed whitelist" is for.  But
by the time those answers are apparent, I expect you'll have give
us mergeable patches for OHCI, EHCI, and the UDC.  ;)
