Followups to the sourceforge list, please.
[ By the way, I noticed that the attachments
got seriously mangled by the geocrawler list
archive ... I don't think extracting patches
from that archive would be safe, as a rule.
Does anyone know if that will be fixed? ]

Subject: [linux-usb-devel] OHCI/Cardbus support
> Hi,
>
> Attached are two patches that combine to provide:
>
> - Fixes for two Oopsen ... one in the case of
> the controller providing bogus register values
> (e.g. when suspended, returning all-ones), and
> the other because sohci_free_dev() wasn't being
> adequately interrupt-safe;
>
> - Cleanup. Some dead code was removed, indenting
> fixed, some used-once methods were inlined.
>
> - "New Style PCI Driver" support, supporting both
> Cardbus and the PCI Hotplug framework.

> Yep -- hotplugging a controller for a hotpluggable bus!!

> Most of the "mega" patch is code shuffling to support
> that style PCI driver, including removal of the old
> power management support. (Except #ifdef PMAC_PBOOK,
> which seems to depend on PCI interfaces _not_ behaving
> to spec -- looks to me like trouble.)

> This works on a number of machines (laptops with and
> without cardbus, desktops) but more testing is needed.
