Yeah, I have seen this patches. That is all fine with me. I'm not
bound to my patches at all. Having DFU in u-boot mainline is the goal.
:)

One of the problems I had was that I did not have hardware with a UDC
driver that is compatible with new gadget layer from the kernel ported
to u-boot. I agree that its the way to go to have composite and more
but it is quite hard to test against when only some drivers are
supporting it. The Beagleboard I used for most of the tests was still
using the musb driver with some glue and does not support it for
example.

That should not be a problem on your side as all Samsung UDCs are
written for the new gadget framework anyway.

Thanks.
