>From what I see in the other thread, the USB never worked with the
series. If the controller returns 0s as EHCI version, something is
obviously broken and I don't even understand how that could be an
acceptable positive test result. The USB HCD version register can NOT
EVER contain zeroes as per the specification. I am really unhappy here.

Putting my USB maintainer hat on, I am quite sure I can evaluate such a
simple yet critical bugfix, if only by spending those two minutes to
look at the code in ohci_register() .

And since you complain about the rate patches get in again, let me
remind you how much flak I got for taking my time reviewing your series
and not applying it right away. Now I am getting flak for applying stuff
too quickly instead. You know, maybe if you spend more time testing the
patches you send thoroughly instead of lecturing people on the MLs, we
wouldn't be having this conversation.
