I think Greg is thinking of the octeon-usb driver in staging [1], not the s3c-hsotg driver. The plan was always to eventually merge dwc2 with s3c-hsotg. -- Paul [1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-driver-devel&m=137665801904014 N�����r��y����b�X��ǧv�^�){.n�+����{�����x,�ȧ���ܨ}���Ơz�&j:+v�������zZ+��+zf���h���~����i���z� �w���?�����&�)ߢf
