Yes, VIA VT6212L:

Controller [1106:3038] (rev 62)
01:04.1 USB Controller [0c03]: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 
Controller [1106:3038] (rev 62)
01:04.2 USB Controller [0c03]: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0 [1106:3104] (rev

I see no reason to delay it. The merge window is when more patches are
allowed to go in, not fewer. When a commit caused a regression in a
stable kernel series, the right time to get it fixed is "as soon as
