No problem.

...though when I did that, I actually found (by code inspection) a bug
in the original patch, so I guess it's a good thing it didn't apply...
...and then that led me to another bug that was pre-existing.  I'll
send up two new patches shortly.  I'll remove John's Ack and Tested
tags from the patch since it contains a change.

It looks like you already landed part 1 of this series (usb: dwc2:
host: Fix missing device insertions) so I won't resend that.

Care to rebase on top of my testing/next ?

Ah, OK.  Now I see why nobody found these problems in testing.  The
code path is completely disabled by all current parameters as checked
in to mainline.  In any case, it's good to fix.
