Yes it does. As discussed recently on this list, the usb bus subsystem
rwsem is the appropriate lock.
On a totally separate topic:
Have you made any headway trying to decipher the VIA UHCI filter driver?
I think the one you were looking at must have been their USB-1.1 driver;
maybe it would be better to examine the USB-2.0 driver, which is the one
that would be installed for a VT6202. That chip makes a good prototype
example, even though it's a little old now, of the UHCI halt-on-babble
problem.
So far technical support at VIA has been completely nonresponsive to
requests for help.
