I'm not sure I fully understand the what's going on, or what the intention of this patch is. So currently xhci driver manages the allocation and freeing of the xhci_hcd structure. We store a pointer to the xhci_hcd structure in the content of both the primary and shared usb_hcds structures hcd_priv field. With this patch xhci would be part of the usb_hcd structure, starting at hcd_priv[0]. (Like EHCI I think) It allocates enough space to include the xhci_hcd in both the primary and shared usb_hcd, but always only use the one in the primary hcd. I'm not sure what to do with the space allocated for the shared hcd's hcd_priv field. This also means that xhci goes away together with the primary hcd. It's possible this has some impact as the xhci driver expects xhci to always exists. -Mathias -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
