USB is one of very few subsystems that really _needs_ to be using the two phase init()/add() driver model calls instead of register(). The state machine for a usb_interface is way too complicated to use that single phase model! So those list checks just answer "has add(this) been called yet?", using a cheap list test. It's not good to bind_driver() for a device that's not yet known to the driver model, for one thing ... - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
