This pull request is large but the biggest part is the first part of the cleanup on the gadget framework so we have a saner setup to add configfs support for v3.8. We have also some more conversions to the new udc_start/udc_stop which makes us closer from dropping the old interfaces. USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED and USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED are finally gone, thanks to Michal for his awesome work. Other than that, we have the usual set of miscellaneous changes and cleanups involving improvements to debug messages, removal of duplicated includes, moving dereference after NULL test, making renesas_hsbhs' irq handler Shared, unused code being dropped, prevention of sleep-inside-spinlock bugs and a race condition fix on udc-core. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJQTh3DAAoJEIaOsuA1yqRE+DIQAIwDRDojG3WLpMq7RJJQclS6 4Uk1wkim/DxlJsXDvhGd/Qecr6Gk8HSX6hFBg0u2t9g5csl42kTa7PGCN8XSgAC9 yekqDbjewkdTy5ar6y06LfFObiq3ubL489AW1p0Sk8t7xPZIwYa18nthLcr955SU i0enMctQ4wuO2OParBoEECjui2ZGD6WUnlLBJP5dR1ALgefl77d93H5wzxZsjJMX zrYsG5MLLz8SyZGgHL7H9e+ydLeLC9zwl2a6PiLMTg1m3E3/wlb+yzjOe/XFubxZ VCrRPvDXsTkCohwGA6rovcLZIxMiBDdjwpYzXMKqfwwePs2DrC9BzxX2n7P0hI/J QlroU/4mj4/xoc6Z/JMxBo0cK8PUhVfmlNt1Y77K40mbSGjwOUL9r905fPOcW1cL 5QjWi7b4XVqp+tCcY7epckN4yivkurXPSFjqoG1DV2RAmY8CXH2uDYp7ZJyxn3BT 7yMxdGfm4IUgvJbET38Bs7mM9EYn7oFBZMfNOJ4yeYYBZ5wCnx5V0bWmyP9SHoDn HUmOD8/NQ91Lafx+qDH86TC0Yi9LMRfyLg0jncVyrF4Mq6R7KPgNHFEjDDUw4OxE 6mskECsORKnQZ7GNe+0/r9Ke8Qy1dmhtQ1mUaKn3GcRwTFveGB4cXJf9yvCFid5Y bOPKKoCFpy7W+ncZ4WDX =T3kf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'gadget-for-v3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/balbi/usb into usb-next usb: gadget: patches for v3.7 merge window This pull request is large but the biggest part is the first part of the cleanup on the gadget framework so we have a saner setup to add configfs support for v3.8.

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("khubd").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
../net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
