I welcome this. I should be able to rip some code out of usbmon now.
The comment in usb.h says:
* (Note
* that transfer_buffer and setup_packet must still be set because not all
* host controllers use DMA, nor do virtual root hubs).
But in case of data, this happens when a driver attempts to set up DMA
with a highmem page without doing a kmap first. I think we never enforced
the above comment. And I think that I managed to oops usbmon by dereferencing
garbage in transfer_buffer before but I may not remember right.
But the setup packet should be mapped to be used, right? There's no
good reason for setup_packet not to be mapped, right?
