There are lots of host drivers floating out there in embedded world that
do not use the current hcd code.  I'm trying to drag them on into the
main kernel tree (usually kicking and screaming.)  After they are in
the tree we can convert them over to using hcd if people want to.

I didn't so much as accept this, as go out of my way to port it to the
tree :)  It's been living in the ARM tree for quite some time.

hcd.c is still reliant on the PCI subsystem.  This ohci driver does not
need the PCI subsystem (I'm guessing it runs on boxes that don't have
PCI)  So until hcd.c gets changed, this is still necessary.

Now to track down that PPC variant of usb-ohci I saw a glimpse of a
while ago...

thanks,
