Note, I've taken LKML off the CC list anyone interested in this on there is
also on linux-usb-devel. I've also added the usb-storage list.

See rest of response below.

I don't like to merge these because it means some other user of some new
device can get unintended consequences - but if we don't have access to the
data, it's better than nothing. Were you the person who owned the device? If
not, do you still have the contact info - perhaps in a bugzilla or BTS
somewhere?

Also, I just noticed this:

>>> +/* Reported by Edward Chapman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

No need to have EMAIL PROTECTED there. Just don't put it in. However, as
much as I don't like entries that span entire bcdDevice IDs, I like even
*less* entries that don't let me go back to the original user when I'm
considering a patch that may well _break_ their device. So please consider
adding it in a foo _at_ bar _dot_ com notation, or making yourself the
contact, or if you must, just leave his name.

Eh - I'm a bit confused. You snatched the entry as a whole off of a mailing
list? One would then assume it wasn't this list, or the entry would have
been merged or rejected. This makes me question if this entry is validly
needed. US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDE is a bad thing to do is if it's not actually needed.
