>    USB: uevent environment key fix
>    
>    This patch (as1010) was written by both Kay Sievers and me.  It solves
>    the problem of duplicated keys in USB uevent structures by refactoring
>    the uevent subroutines, taking advantage of the way the hotplug core
>    calls uevent handlers for the device's bus and for the device's type.
>    Keys needed for both USB-device and USB-interface events are added in
>    usb_uevent(), which is the bus handler.  Keys appropriate only for
>    USB-device or USB-interface events are added in usb_dev_uevent() or
>    usb_if_uevent() respectively, the type handlers.
>    
>    In addition, unnecessary tests for NULL pointers are removed as are
>    duplicated debugging log statements.

>    usb: Remove broken optimisation in OHCI IRQ handler
>    
>    The OHCI IRQ handler has an optimisation that avoids reading some
>    chip registers when the controller reports that the interrupt was
>    triggered *only* because completed requests were written into the
>    controller's "done list" and handed to the host.
>    
>    This mechanism can't be used on some controllers.  Among others, it
>    fails for the SA1111 and the AMCC 440EP PowerPC processor.
>    
>    This patch removes the optimisation and makes the code clearer.
