Thanks for the patch, it has been uploaded as ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v2.1/kdb-v2.1-2.4.18-ia64-usb-keyboard-1.bz2. A couple of comments: Could you use the same coding standard as the rest of the kernel and usb code? It makes the patch look cleaner. Running your changes through scripts/Lindent is the easiest way to standardize the code. You test jiffies, looking for a timeout. When kdb is in control all interrupts are disabled, including the timer. jiffies should not be changing at all.
