this is the length calculation fix against 2.5.
  - fix DHCP problem with correct length calculation
  Thanks to Oliver Kurth

  - additional device id

And the 2.5 patch.

These are very small and similar csets against both usb-2.4 and usb-2.5
trees.  One part of them is adding a missing flag to one of the device
descriptors.  The other part is fixing a vendor name which i mistakenly
replaced with the product name.


  Adding Mobility EasyDock device into the list.
  Adding a missing flag to Accton's SpeedStream description

The Stanford Checker discovered a memory leak in cdc-acm.
This patch to 2.5.59 fixes it.  Please apply.

Leak found by the Stanford Checker (patch by Randy Dunlap).

Get rid of some unused #defines.

Matt Dharm asked me to send these bug-fix patches directly to you.  They
correct the error-code handling in usb-storage.  The change for 2.5 is
pretty minor; it only affects debugging output.  But the change for 2.4 is
more pervasive, and according to Tom Collins it is the key to making a usb
hard disk work on his MIPS-based system.

This prevents reporting processes as having started in the future, after
32 bit jiffies wrap.

Use 64 bit jiffies for reporting uptime.

Provide a sane way to avoid unneccessary locking on 64 bit platforms,
and a 64 bit analogous to "jiffies_to_clock_t()".

 - conversion of remaining drivers to generic device model
 - more of sfr's compat stuff
 - eliminate some bogus syscalls
 - update for MUX driver
 - beginnings of new module code
 - tell the keyboard driver about CONFIG_PARISC

Thanks to John Moses <jmoses@lanl.gov> for the information.

This patch clears out the device queue when a unit is removed.

This code implements the setting of devices offline during the removal
phase.

This patch makes us hold the host reference count a little bit longer in
the /proc interface code.  We were releasing it too early before.

  speedtouch: reject outgoing packets earlier when the firmware is not loaded.

  speedtouch: allocate send urbs in udsl_usb_probe rather than in udsl_usb_data_init.
  Since this diminishes udsl_usb_data_init down to almost nothing, roll it into the one
  place it was used.  Get rid of the semaphore Oliver put it - it is no longer needed.

  speedtouch: change data_started to firmware_loaded, which is what it actually
  means, plus some minor related changes.

  speedtouch: a pile of cosmetic changes to make me feel happier (no code changes).

  speedtouch: wait for receive urb completion handlers to finish after calling
  usb_unlink_urb.

  speedtouch: more robust handling of receive urb failure: retry failed urbs whenever
  a new connection is opened.  This should work well with pppd's persist option.

Rediffed version of the original patch - no sk_buff on the stack this time.

  speedtouch: recycle the receive urb's buffer.  Currently, every time a receive urb
    completes, its old buffer is thrown away and replaced with a new one.  This patch
    performs the minor changes needed to reuse the old buffer.

  speedtouch: move all processing of receive urbs to udsl_atm_processqueue.  This has
  several advantages, as will be seen in the next few patches.  The most important is
  that it makes it easy to reuse of the urb's buffer (right now a new buffer is
  allocated every time the urb completes).  By the way, this patch is much smaller than
  it looks: most of the bulk is due to indentation changes.

This patch prints the vendor + product ids of the scanner after it has
been successfully detected.

Also the annoying error message about "Scanner device is already open"
was downgraded to a dbg. Scanning for devices while one scanner device
was open produced several 100 error messages in syslog.

This patch changes the maintainer from Brian Beattie to Henning
Meier-Geinitz and adds a link to the documentation and website.

This is a minor cleanup to convert 8 spaces into tabs.  There is no
functional change here.

This patch removes the US_FL_DEV_ATTACHED flag, which is now rendered
obsolete by the new hotplug system.

It also adds a comment or two about areas of code that need to be
re-examined.

This patch does the following:
(o) Add comments showing what needs to be done to complete the hot-unplug
    system.
(o) Add a BUG_ON() for (what is now) a critical failure case.
(o) Make certain that a debug print happens even if a usb_get_intfdata()
    crashes.
(o) Add an un-necessary up() to balance a down, for the auto-code-checkers.
