I enable debug information (In common.h, define the DEBUG).

It comes out from usb gadget driver, for example, atmel_usba_udc.c and 
also s3c_udc_otg.c and etc.

I see the spin_lock_irqsave() function in 
<drivers/usb/musb-new/linux-compat.h> defined as:
--->8---
#define spin_lock_irqsave(lock, flags) do {} while (0)
---8<---

As in u-boot, there is no lock actually, so I think we can fix it as 
<drivers/usb/musb-new/linux-compat.h>, or use the patch as I suggest, or 
anything else, what about your opinion?
