Well, it would be nice (to change) & probably required for 2.5/2.6,
but for now I mean ones that aren't used or are used very
little, like:
. usb_request_irq() & usb_release_irq() are used only by uss720.c
. usb_request_bulk() is not used.
. usb_terminate_bulk() is not used.
Looks like we could go ahead and kill usb_request_bulk() and
usb_terminate_bulk(). Any objections/problems with that?
I guess some non-kernel drivers could be using these
(but not the cpqpjb driver). I guess to be fair about it
we need to mark them Deprecated in 2.4 and remove them
after that.
usb_bulk_msg() is probably safe for awhile longer
and usb_control_msg() is safe also.
