Hi,

I've checked a number of changes into the USB
[device|target|client|gadget|fish] code repository at:
        bk://linuxusb.bkbits.net/usbd-2.5

These include:
        - removing those offending usbd-debug functions that Linus
          complained about.
        - adding the usbdmonitor and usbserial modules to the build
          process if the user selects them.
        - lots of global symbols removed
        - moved the subdirectories out of the bi/ directory, now there
          is no more bi/ directory.
        - removed the automatically generated header files, as the
          kernel build process doesn't really like them.
and a few other minor things.
I'll rename the directory and files once the naming discussion settles
down :)


But I have a few questions:
        - it doesn't look like the following files are ever used, can I
          remove them?:
                crc10.c
                crc10.h
                crc16.h
                crc16.c
                crc8.c
                crc8.h
        - The code in usbd-debug.c allows for some pretty complicated
          parsing of debug options.  Is this really necessary?  It looks
          like the code came from a different project, and was added.
          It does look quite flexible, but maybe a bit too flexible :)
        - The link process for the processor drivers links files from
          the previous directory, which causes the compile process to
          happen every time you enter the directory.  This is not nice.
          Can we take the common code and put it into the "main"
          usbdcore.o (or whatever we end up calling it) module?  That is
          what we did for the usb core code.
        - It doesn't look like the build process will work if you want
          to build things into the kernel, instead of modules.  I'll
          look into fixing this if you don't want to.

That's enough for now :)

thanks,

greg k-h
