'Llo All, Greg,
To my modest kernel-newby reader opinion, statement
id = usb_drv->id_table;
on line 535 of usb.c version 2.6.8.1 is superfluous, as it is re- set the statement after (line 537). Not that I know that much of the kernel itself, but reading/writing C is one of my daily programmer activities. And there are (unless I'm overlooking something) no side-effects to this statement, apart from uselessly spending time when not optimized-out by the compiler.
How small this improvement might be, and given the number of computers running Linux, and the usb- devices around using this routine, I think I saved human mankind some seconds :)
Kind regards,
PhB
