[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/5] RFC: usb: Drop requirement for USB unbinding

[Simon Glass]

There was quite a bit of discussion about the change that required the
unbinding of USB devices for the subsystem to function correctly. E.g.

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/485637/

The key issue is the usb_get_dev_index() function which is not a good API
for driver model. We can drop use of this function once everything is
converted to driver model. Then I believe the problems raised by Hans go
away. For now we can add a deprecation warning on the function.

It is easy to convert USB keyboards to driver model. This series includes
a patch for that.

This series also includes reverts for the three commits which as discussed
I would like to drop. U-Boot should be able to run normally and exit without
unbinding anything.

I cannot actually repeat the problem that Hans mentions in the above thread
so I may be missing a step. Hans, any ideas on this?
